Constraining GRB Initial Lorentz Factor with the Afterglow Onset Feature and Discovery of a Tight Gamma_0-E_iso Correlation
En-Wei Liang, Shuang-xi Yi, Jin Zhang +3
The onset of GRB afterglow is characterized by a smooth bump in the early afterglow lightcurve. We make an extensive search for such a feature. Twenty optically selected GRBs and 1…

A Comprehensive Analysis of Swift/XRT Data: IV. Single Power-Law Decaying Lightcurves vs. Canonical Lightcurves and Implications for a Unified Origin of X-rays
En-Wei Liang, Hou-Jun Lv, Shu-Jin Hou +2
By analyzing the Swift/XRT lightcurves detected before 2009 July, we find 19 cases that monotonously decay as a single power law (SPL) with an index of 1 ~ 1.7 from tens (or hundre…
