Pulse Structure of Hot Electromagnetic Outflows with Embedded Baryons
Christopher Thompson, Ramandeep Gill
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) show a dramatic pulse structure that requires bulk relativistic motion, but whose physical origin has remained murky. We focus on a hot, magnetized jet that…

Non-thermal Gamma-ray Emission from Delayed Pair Breakdown in a Magnetized and Photon-rich Outflow
Ramandeep Gill, Christopher Thompson
We consider delayed, volumetric heating in a magnetized outflow that has broken out of a confining medium and expanded to a high Lorentz factor () and low optical…
