A scenario is proposed that explains both the observed high pulsar velocities and extragalactic gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). The model involves an ultra- relativistic jet from a supernova (SN), that produces a GRB and its afterglow, whose…
We present the main observational features expected for GRBs that occur inside pulsar wind bubbles (PWBs). This is the most natural outcome of supranova model where initially a supernova explosion takes place, leaving a supra-massive NS,…
We present the main observational features expected for Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) that occur inside pulsar wind bubbles (PWBs). This is the most natural outcome of the supranova model, where initially a supernova (SN) explosion takes place,…
Absorption and reprocessing of Gamma-ray burst radiation in the environment of cosmological GRBs can be used as a powerful probe of the elusive nature of their progenitors. Although it is widely accepted that long-duration GRBs are…
We study thermal emission from circumstellar structures heated by gamma-ray burst (GRB) radiation and ejecta and calculate its contribution to GRB optical and X-ray afterglows using the modified radiation hydro-code small STELLA. It is…
An energy deposition of \sim 10^{50} ergs into the exterior 10^{-3} M_\sun layers of a red giant is calculated to produce an optical phenomenon similar to afterglows of gamma-ray bursts (GRB) recently observed. This model can be realized if…
We propose to identify pulsar-wind bubbles (PWBs) as the environment in which the afterglow emission in at least some gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) originates. Such bubbles could naturally account for the high fraction of the internal energy…
We severely criticize the consuetudinary analysis of the afterglows of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) in the conical-ejection fireball scenarios. We argue that, instead, recent observations imply that the long-duration GRBs and their afterglows…
We systematically reanalyzed all Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) afterglow data published through the end of 2002, in an attempt to detect the predicted supernova light component and to gain statistical insight on its phenomenological properties. We…
The gamma-ray burst (GRB) jet powers the afterglow emission by shocking the surrounding medium, and radio afterglow can now be routinely observed to almost a year after the explosion. Long-duration GRBs are accompanied by supernovae (SNe)…
This rapporteur review summarizes results presented in Parallel Session GBT2 (Gamma Ray Burst Theory 2) on the Collapsar and Supranova Models held 25 July 2003 at the 10th Marcel Grossmann Meeting on General Relativity, Rio de Janeiro,…
We consider GRBs that occur inside pulsar wind bubbles (PWBs), in the context of the supranova model, where initially a supernova explosion takes place, leaving behind a supra-massive neutron star (SMNS), which eventually loses its…
In several gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) excess emission, in addition to the standard synchrotron afterglow spectrum, has been discovered in the early time X-ray observations. It has been proposed that this excess comes from black body emission,…
A standard fireball/afterglow model of a gamma-ray burst relates the event to a merging neutron star binary, or a neutron star - black hole binary, which places the events far away from star forming regions, and is thought to have an energy…
The deviation from the power-law decline of the optical flux observed in GRB 970228 and GRB 980326 has been used recently to argue in favor of the connection between GRBs and supernovae. We consider an alternative explanation for this…
At the time of its discovery, the optical and X-ray afterglow of GRB 970228 appeared to be a ringing endorsement of the previously untried relativistic fireball model of gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows, but now that nearly a dozen optical…
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of the late afterglow of GRB 000911, starting ~1 day after the burst event and lasting ~8 weeks. We detect a moderately significant re-brightening in the R, I and J lightcurves,…
Models where relativistic jets from merger or accretion induced collapse in compact binary systems produce cosmological gamma ray bursts (GRBs) also predict that GRBs are accompanied by delayed emission of high energy photons, TeV…
Gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows are likely produced in the shock that is driven as the GRB jet interacts with the external medium. Long-duration GRBs are also associated with powerful supernovae (SNe). We consider the optical and radio…
We present an update of our systematic analysis of all Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) afterglow data, now published through the end of 2004, in an attempt to detect the predicted supernova light component. We fit the observed photometric light…
