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)…
The properties of the spectral evolution during the prompt emission phase of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), which are closely related to the radiation mechanism (synchrotron or photosphere), are still a subject of debate. Two spectral evolution…
Previous studies have considered synchrotron as the emission mechanism for prompt Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). These works have shown that the electrons must cool on a timescale comparable to the dynamic time at the source in order to satisfy…
The characteristics of the spectral evolution of the prompt emission of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), which are closely related to the radiation mechanism (synchrotron or photosphere), are still an unsolved subject. Here, by performing the…
Despite the great variation in the light curves of Gamma Ray Burst (GRB) prompt emission, their spectral energy distribution is generally curved and broadly peaked. In particular, their spectral evolution is well described by the…
Synchrotron radiation from accelerated electrons above the photosphere of a relativistic ejecta is a natural candidate for the dominant process for the prompt GRB emission. There is however a tension between the predicted low-energy…
Growing evidence indicates that the synchrotron radiation mechanism may be responsible for the prompt emission of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). In the synchrotron radiation scenario, the electron energy spectrum of the prompt emission is diverse…
The low-energy spectra of gamma-ray bursts' (GRBs) prompt emission are closely related to the energy distribution of electrons, which is further regulated by their cooling processes. We develop a numerical code to calculate the evolution of…
(abridged)Prompt GRB emission is often interpreted as synchrotron radiation from high-energy electrons accelerated in internal shocks. Fast synchrotron cooling predicts that the photon index below the spectral peak is alpha=-3/2. This…
The emission mechanism of the gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is still a matter of debates. The standard synchrotron energy spectrum of cooling electrons F_E ~ E^{-1/2} is much too soft to account for the majority of the observed spectral slopes.…
Information on the spectral shape of prompt emission in gamma-ray bursts (GRB) is mostly available only at energies $\gtrsim10$ keV, where the main instruments for GRB detection are sensitive. The origin of this emission is still very…
The dominant radiation mechanism that produces the prompt emission in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) remains a major open question. Spectral information alone has proven insufficient in elucidating its nature. Time-resolved linear polarization has…
For over two decades, gamma-ray burst (GRB) prompt emission spectra were modelled with smoothly-broken power laws (Band function), and a positive and tight correlation between the spectral rest-frame peak energy $E_p$ and the total…
We test the models of synchrotron emission presented in Part I of this series (Lloyd & Petrosian, these proceedings) against the distributions and evolution of GRB spectral parameters (particularly the low energy index, $\alpha$). With…
The recent launches of the Einstein Probe (EP) and the Space Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) mission have led to the detection of a growing number of long GRBs with significant, early soft X-ray flux during their gamma-ray emission,…
The typical spectrum of the prompt emission of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) indicates that the electron cooling is suppressed in spite of the strong magnetic field in the standard synchrotron model. Recent Particle-in-Cell simulations show that…
We present a time-resolved, joint Swift-Fermi spectral study of GRB 241030A (z=1.411) that cleanly isolates the synchrotron origin of its prompt emission and favors a matter-dominated, internal-shock scenario. The light curve shows two…
Synchrotron radiation of relativistic electrons is an important radiation mechanism in many astrophysical sources. In the sources where the synchrotron cooling time scale $t_c$ is shorter than the dynamical time scale $t_{dyn}$, electrons…
The origin of prompt emission in $\gamma$-ray bursts (GRBs) is highly debated topic. The observed spectra are supposed to play a crucial role in constraining the location of the emitting region, the strength of the magnetic field and the…
We reexamine the general synchrotron model for GRBs' prompt emission and determine the regime in the parameter phase space in which it is viable. We characterize a typical GRB pulse in terms of its peak energy, peak flux and duration and…
