We remark on the utility of an observational relation between the absorption column density in excess of the Galactic absorption column density, $\Delta N_{\rm H} = N_{\rm H, fit} - N_{\rm H, gal}$, and redshift, z, determined from all 55…

We use a homogeneous sample of gamma-ray bursts (GRB) extracted from 5.9 years of BATSE DISCLA data (astro-ph/9908190) and a variety of broken power-law luminosity functions to derive GRB luminosities and space densities. Luminosity…

In this letter, we calculate the redshift distribution of gamma-ray bursts assuming that they trace (i) the globally averaged star formation rate or (ii) the average metallicity in the Universe. While at redshifts 5 and below, both the star…

We report optical, near-infrared and X-ray observations of the afterglow of GRB 050814, which was seen to exhibit very red optical colours. By modelling its spectral energy distribution we find that z = 5.3 +/- 0.3. We next present a…

We present a template fitting algorithm for determining photometric redshifts, $z_{\rm phot}$, of candidate high-redshift gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). Using afterglow photometry, obtained by the Reionization And Transients InfraRed (RATIR)…

We employ realistic constraints on selection effects to model the Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) redshift distribution using {\it Swift} triggered redshift samples acquired from optical afterglows and the TOUGH survey. Models for the Malmquist bias,…

The intriguing observations of Swift/BAT X-ray flash XRF 060218 and the BATSE-BeppoSAX gamma-ray burst GRB 980425, both with much lower luminosity and redshift compared to other observed bursts, naturally lead to the question of how these…

We exploit the 14 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with known redshifts z and the 7 GRBs for which there are constraints on z to determine the GRB rate R_{GRB}(z), using a method based on Bayesian inference. We find that, despite the qualitative…

Luminosity of GRB 170817A is much lower than that of other sGRBs. The measurement of the superluminal movement of the radio afterglow emission confirms the presence of the relativistic jet, and the emission features can be well explained by…

We present a catalog of the probabilistic redshift estimates and for 1366 individual Long-duration Gamma-Ray Bursts (LGRBs) detected by the Burst And Transient Source Experiment (BATSE). This result is based on a careful selection and…

The relation between the event rate of long Gamma-Ray Bursts at low redshift and the star formation rate is still controversial, especially in the low-redshift end. Dong et al. confirmed that the Gamma-Ray Burst rate always exceeds the star…

We calculate durations and spectral parameters for 207 Swift bursts detected by the BAT instrument from April 2007 to August 2009, including 67 events with measured redshifts. This is the first supplement to our catalog of 425 Swift GRBs…

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…

Correlations among pulse properties in the prompt emission of long GRBs can potentially be used as cosmological distance indicators to estimate redshifts of GRBs to which these pulses belong. We demonstrate application of this technique to…

We study the spectral and energetics properties of 47 long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with known redshift, all of them detected by the Swift satellite. Due to the narrow energy range (15-150 keV) of the Swift-BAT detector, the…

We study the luminosity function of long gamma-ray bursts (LGRBs) using the peak flux obtained from three LGRB samples with known redshifts: (a) a sample of 251 LGRBs from the \textit{Swift/BAT} satellite/instrument; (b) a sample of 37…

We present a catalog of the redshift estimates and probability distributions for 1366 individual Long-duration Gamma-Ray Bursts (LGRBs) detected by the Burst And Transient Source Experiment (BATSE). This result is based on a careful…

Gamma Ray Bursts (GRB) are among the brightest objects in the Universe and hence can be observed up to a very high redshift. Properly calibrated empirical correlations between intensity and spectral correlations of GRBs can be used to…

We have studied power density spectra (PDS) of 206 long Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). We fitted the PDS with a simple power-law and extracted the exponent of the power-law (alpha) and the noise-crossing threshold frequency (f_th). We find that…

Long duration Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) have been strongly connected with core collapse supernovae, so it was surprising when the recent GRB060614 (with a reported redshift of 0.125) was found to have no visible supernova to deep limits.…
