Synchrotron emission is believed to be a major radiation mechanism during gamma-ray bursts' (GRBs) prompt emission phase. A significant drawback of this assumption is that the theoretical predicted spectrum, calculated within the framework…

Fireballs are huge isotropic explosions models widely believed to explain Gamma Ray Burst, GRBs (Piran,1999); ever-new versions consider wide beamed (10^o) Jet explosions hitting external shells. On the contrary, since 1994-1998, we argued…
Prompt {\gamma}-ray emissions from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) exhibit a vast range of extremely complex temporal structures with a typical variability time-scale significantly short - as fast as milliseconds. This work aims to investigate the…
Many gamma ray bursts (GRBs) have been observed with the Burst-Alert and X-Ray telescopes of the Swift satellite. The successive `pulses' of these GRBs end with a fast decline and a fast spectral softening, until they are overtaken by…
Emission from the photosphere in gamma-ray burst (GRB) jets can be substantially affected by subphotospheric energy dissipation, which is typically caused by radiation-mediated shocks (RMSs). We study the observational characteristics of…
