On the formation of strange quark stars from supernova in compact binaries

The long-short GRB connection

J. A. Rueda, L. Becerra, C. L. Bianco +4

Long and short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are thought to arise from different and unrelated astrophysical progenitors. The association of long GRBs with supernovae (SNe) and the diffe…

On the GeV emission of the type I BdHN GRB 130427A

R. Ruffini, R. Moradi, J. A. Rueda +9

We propose that the "inner engine" of a type I binary-driven hypernova (BdHN) is composed of a Kerr black hole (BH) in a non-stationary state, embedded in a uniform magnetic field…

Two Predictions of supernova: GRB 130427A / SN 2013cq and GRB 180728A / SN 2018fip

Yu Wang, Jorge A. Rueda, Remo Ruffini +4

On 2018 July 28, GRB 180728A triggered \textit{Swift} satellites and, soon after the determination of the redshift, we identified this source as a type II binary-driven hypernova (…
