The quantum-mechanical collapse (alias fall onto the center of particles attracted by potential -1/r^2), or "quantum anomaly", is a well-known issue in the quantum theory. We demonstrate that the mean-field repulsive nonlinearity prevents…

A large fraction of Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) displays an X-ray plateau phase within <10^{5} s from the prompt emission, proposed to be powered by the spin-down energy of a rapidly spinning newly born magnetar. In this work we use the…

Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) are notorious for their diversity. Yet, they have a series of common features. The typical energy of their $\gamma$ rays is a fraction of an MeV. The energy distributions are well described by a ``Band spectrum'',…

Most of proposed models of cosmological gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are associated to gravitational collapses of massive stars, and hence evolution of the GRB rate, which is crucially important in GRB intensity distribution analysis, is…

Gamma-ray burst light curves are characterized by marked variability, each showing unique properties. The origin of such variability, at least for a fraction of long GRBs, may be the result of an unsteady central engine. It is thus…

We present a new three-parameter family of self-consistent equilibrium models for quasi-relaxed stellar systems that are subject to the combined action of external tides and rigid internal rotation. These models provide an idealised…
