We carry out a systematical study of the spectral lag properties of 50 single-pulsed Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) detected by Fermi/GBM. By dividing the light curves into multiple consecutive energy channels we provide a new measurement of the…
The fluctuations observed in the light curves of some GRB-afterglows (such as GRB 021004) provide a useful tool to probe the circum-burst density profile and to probe the variations in the energy of blast-wave with time. We present a…
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), which have been observed up to redshifts $z \approx 9.5$ can be good probes of the early universe and have the potential of testing cosmological models. The analysis by Dainotti of GRB Swift afterglow lightcurves…
We present optical and near-infrared photometric observations of GRB 191016 with the COATLI, DDOTI and RATIR ground-based telescopes over the first three nights. We present the temporal evolution of the optical afterglow and describe 5…
Nonlinear evolutions of an ultra-intense, short laser pulse due to the wake excitation inside the plasma are studied by means of detailed Particle-In-Cell (PIC) simulations and comprehensive analyses. Pulse lengths both longer and shorter…
The early steep decay, a rapid decrease in X-ray flux as a function of time following the prompt emission, is a robust feature seen in almost all gamma-ray bursts with early enough X-ray observations. This peculiar phenomenon has often been…
A GRB afterglow has been commonly thought to be due to continuous deceleration of a postburst fireball. Many analytical models have made simplifications for deceleration dynamics of the fireball and its radiation property, although they are…
The Space-based multiband astronomical Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM), detected its first short gamma-ray burst, GRB 240715A, in-flight, which was jointly observed by Fermi. Based on observational data of SVOM/GRM and Fermi/GBM, we perform…
The flaring and fading radio, optical, and X-ray afterglows from GRB 970508 are modeled by a highly relativistic plasma sphere which decelerates by sweeping up ambient gas. The afterglow emission is assumed to be synchrotron radiation…
Some GRB afterglow light curves show significant variability, which often includes episodes of rebrightening. This was attributed in several cases to large fluctuations in the external density. Here we examine the effect of a sharp increase…
There are two different evolution patterns of the peak energy ($E_\text{p}$) exhibited during the prompt emission phase of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), i.e., hard-to-soft and intensity-tracking, of which the physical origin remains unknown.…
Sorted by the photon fluences of short Gamma-ray Bursts (SGRBs) detected by the Fermi- Gamma Ray Burst Monitor (GBM), nine brightest bursts are selected to perform a comprehensive analysis. All GRB lightcurves are fitted well by 1 to 3…
The light curves of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) are believed to result from internal shocks reflecting the activity of the GRB central engine. Their temporal deconvolution can reveal potential differences in the properties of the central…
We study statistical properties of long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) produced by the collapsing cores of WR stars in binary systems. Fast rotation of the cores enables a two-stage collapse scenario, implying the formation of a spinar-like…
The relative-space-time-transformation (RSTT) paradigm and the interpretation of the burst-structure (IBS) paradigm are applied to probe the origin of the time variability of GRBs. Again GRB 991216 is used as a prototypical case, thanks to…
The accepted model for nerve pulse propagation in biological membranes seems insufficient. It is restricted to dissipative electrical phenomena and considers nerve pulses exclusively as a microscopic phenomenon. A simple thermodynamic model…
When the frequencies of the elastic and pendular oscillations of an elastic pendulum or swinging spring are in the ratio two-to-one, there is a regular exchange of energy between the two modes of oscillation. We refer to this phenomenon as…
Observing early optical emission from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) contemporaneous with the MeV prompt emission phase remains rare, requiring rapid-response robotic facilities. The Ond\v{r}ejov D50 telescope detected the optical counterpart of…
The detection of an afterglow, following a gamma-ray burst (GRB), can be described reasonably well by synchrotron emission from a relativistic spherical expanding blast wave, driven by an expanding fireball. We perform detailed calculations…
Tail emission of the prompt gamma-ray burst (GRB) is discussed using a multiple emitting sub-shell (inhomogeneous jet, sub-jets or mini-jets) model, where the whole GRB jet consists of many emitting sub-shells. One may expect that such a…
