GRB as explosions with standard power

Astrophysics 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

We show that the distribution of observed energies of GRB with known redshifts can be explained by the hypothesis of the standard energy release E_0=5 10^51 ergs. Two situations are possible, either the beaming angle differs from burst to burst, or there is a universal emssion diagram in each burst, the observed difference being due to different viewing angles.
