Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) show different behaviours and trends in their spectral evolution. One of the methods used to understand the physical origin of these behaviours is to study correlation between the spectral fit parameters. In this…

The prompt emission of gamma-ray bursts remains mysterious since the mechanism is difficult to understand even though there are much more observations with the development of detection technology. But most of the gamma-ray bursts spectra…

The possibility that gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) were not isotropic emissions was devised theoretically as a way to ameliorate the huge energetic budget implied by the standard fireball model for these powerful phenomena. However, the mechanism…

The jet photosphere has been proposed as the origin for the gamma-ray burst (GRB) prompt emission. In many such models, characteristic features in the spectra appear below the energy range of the $\textit{Fermi}$ GBM detectors, so joint…
