Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) display a bimodal duration distribution with a separation between the short-and long-duration bursts at about 2 s. The progenitors of long GRBs have been …
Z Cano, SQ Wang, ZG Dai, XF Wu - Advances in Astronomy, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
We present a detailed report of the connection between long‐duration gamma‐ray bursts (GRBs) and their accompanying supernovae (SNe). The discussion presented here places …
Gamma-ray bursts (GRB's), short and intense pulses of low-energy γ rays, have fascinated astronomers and astrophysicists since their unexpected discovery in the late sixties. During …

Gamma-ray bursts are the most luminous explosions in the Universe, and their origin and mechanism are the focus of intense research and debate. More than three decades after …
We present early observations of the afterglow of GRB 030329 and the spectroscopic discovery of its associated supernova SN 2003dh. We obtained spectra of the afterglow of …
B Zhang, P Meszaros - International Journal of Modern Physics A, 2004 - World Scientific
The cosmological gamma-ray burst (GRB) phenomenon is reviewed. The broad observational facts and empirical phenomenological relations of the GRB prompt emission …
Well before the afterglow era, Paczynski (1986) noted that “cosmological” distances of GRBs would imply that the energy release in gamma rays would be comparable to the energy …
W Zhang, SE Woosley… - The Astrophysical …, 2003 - iopscience.iop.org
We examine the propagation of two-dimensional relativistic jets through the stellar progenitor in the collapsar model for gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). Each jet is parameterized by …
JM Martí, E Müller - Living Reviews in Relativity, 2003 - Springer
This review is concerned with a discussion of numerical methods for the solution of the equations of special relativistic hydrodynamics (SRHD). Particular emphasis is put on a …
