[HTML][HTML] Short gamma-ray bursts: A review
P D'Avanzo - Journal of High Energy Astrophysics, 2015 - Elsevier
Abstract Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) are rapid, bright flashes of radiation peaking in the
gamma-ray band occurring at an average rate of one event per day at cosmological …

Gamma-ray burst progenitors
We review our current understanding of the progenitors of both long and short duration
gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). Constraints can be derived from multiple directions, and we use …

A lanthanide-rich kilonova in the aftermath of a long gamma-ray burst
Observationally, kilonovae are astrophysical transients powered by the radioactive decay of
nuclei heavier than iron, thought to be synthesized in the merger of two compact objects …
