Spectral lag, the time difference between the arrival of high-energy and low-energy photons, is a common feature in Gamma-ray Bursts (GRBs). Norris et al. 2000 reported a correlation between the spectral lag and the isotropic peak…
Spectral lag, which is defined as the difference in time of arrival of high and low energy photons, is a common feature in Gamma-ray Bursts (GRBs). Previous investigations have shown a correlation between this lag and the isotropic peak…
We suggest a connection between the pulse paradigm at gamma-ray energies and the recently demonstrated luminosity distribution in gamma-ray bursts: the spectral evolution timescale of pulse structures is anticorrelated with peak luminosity,…
A quantitative theory of spectral lags for $\gamma$-ray bursts (GRBs) is given. The underlying hypothesis is that GRB subpulses are photons that are scattered into our line of sight by local concentrations of baryons that are accelerated by…
We report on observations of correlated behavior between the prompt gamma-ray and optical emission from GRB 080319B, which (i) strongly suggest that they occurred within the same astrophysical source region and (ii) indicate that their…
The analysis of spectral lag between energy bands, which combines temporal and spectral analyses, can add strict constraints to gamma-ray burst (GRB) models. In previous studies, the lag analysis focused on the lags between channel 1 (25-57…
Positive lags between the arrival time of different photon energies are commonly observed in Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), where soft photons lag behind harder ones. However, some GRBs exhibit the opposite behavior. In particular, Fermi LAT…
Relations linking the temporal or/and spectral properties of the prompt emission of gamma-ray bursts (hereafter GRBs) to the absolute luminosity are of great importance as they both constrain the radiation mechanisms and represent potential…
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…
A correlation is presented between the pulse lag and the jet-break time for seven BATSE gamma-ray bursts with known redshifts. This is, to our best knowledge, the first known direct tight correlation between a property of the gamma-ray…

The lag-luminosity relation (LLR) provides a way of estimating GRB luminosity by measuring the spectral lags between different energy bands. We want to understand the origin of the LLR and test its validity. This appears especially…
Assuming an intrinsic `Band' shape spectrum and an intrinsic energy-independent emission profile we have investigated the connection between the evolution of the rest-frame spectral parameters and the spectral lags measured in gamma-ray…
The prompt emission phase of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) exhibits two distinct patterns of the peak-energy ($E_p$) evolution, i.e., time-resolved spectral analyses of $\nu F_{\nu}$ spectra of broad pulses reveal (1) "hard-to-soft" and (2)…
From recent observations of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), it appears that spectral time lags between higher-energy gamma rays photons and lower-energy photons vary with energy difference and time (distance) traveled. These lags appear to be…
A strong correlation is reported between gamma-ray burst (GRB) pulse lags and afterglow jet-break times for the set of bursts (seven) with known redshifts, luminosities, pulse lags, and jet-break times. This may be a valuable clue toward…
We study the spectral evolution on second and sub--second timescales in 11 long and 12 short Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) with peak flux >8.5e-6 erg/cm2 s (8 keV-35 MeV) detected by the Fermi satellite. The peak flux correlates with the…
The correlations between the rest frame peak of the EF_E spectrum of GRBs Epeak and their isotropic energy (E_iso) or luminosity (L_iso) could have several implications for the understanding of the GRB prompt emission. These correlations…
It was well known that most of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are dominated by positive spectral lags, while a small fraction of GRBs show negative lags. However, Wei et al. firstly identified a well-defined transition from positive lags to…
Spectral lags are deduced for 1437 long GRBs with peak fluxes extending to near the BATSE trigger threshold. The lags are modeled to approximate the observed distribution in the peak flux-lag plane, realizing a noise-free representation.…
