Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected at high redshift can be used to trace the cosmic expansion history. However, the calibration of their luminosity distances is not an easy task in comparison to Type Ia Supernovae (SNeIa). To calibrate these…

Probing the evolution of the universe at high redshifts with standard candles is a powerful way to discriminate dark energy models, where an open question nowadays is whether this component is constant or evolves with time. One possible…

In a few dozen seconds gamma ray bursts (GRBs) emit up to 10^54 erg in terms of an equivalent isotropically radiated energy Eiso, so they can be observed up to z ~10. Thus, these phenomena appear to be very promising tools to describe the…

Several gamma-ray burst (GRB) luminosity indicators (LIs)have been proposed. Unlike SNe Ia, calibration of GRB LIs using a low-redshift sample is difficult. Based on the Bayesian theory, here we propose an approach to calibrate these LIs…

We select a sample of 34 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) whose $\Gamma_0$ values are derived with the onset peaks observed in the afterglow lightcurves (except for GRB 060218 whose $\Gamma_0$ is estimated with its radio data), and investigate the…
