相关论文: A new approach of analyzing GRB light curves
We present the preliminary analysis of the GRB light curves obtained by Swift/XRT between November 2004 and December 2010.
We present the R and V light curves of the optical counterpart of GRB 970228. A critical analysis of all the available data is made in light of the results achieved in the recent GRB Symposium held in Huntsville and by considering the…
Many synoptic surveys are observing large parts of the sky multiple times. The resulting lightcurves provide a wonderful window to the dynamic nature of the universe. However, there are many significant challenges in analyzing these light…
We investigate the clustering of afterglow light curves observed at X-ray and optical wavelengths. We have constructed a sample of 61 bursts with known dis tance and X-ray afterglow. This sample includes bursts observed by BeppoSAX,…
GRB011121 is analyzed as a prototype to understand the ``flares'' recently observed by Swift in the afterglow of many GRB sources. Detailed theoretical computation of the GRB011121 light curves in selected energy bands are presented and…
The cumulative light curves of a large sample of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) were obtained by summing the BATSE counts. The smoothed profiles are much simpler than the complex and erratic running light curves that are normally used. For most…
The standard model of GRB afterglows assumes that relativistically expanding material is decelerating due to interaction with the surrounding medium. The afterglows are well described by the synchrotron radiation from a forward shock, while…
We present the results of a systematic analysis of the world sample of optical/near-infrared afterglow light curves observed in the pre-Swift era by the end of 2004. After selecting the best observed 16 afterglows with well-sampled light…
We investigate the clustering of afterglow light curves observed at X-ray and optical wavelengths. We have constructed a sample of 61 bursts with known distance and X-ray afterglow. GRB sources can be divided in three classes, namely…
Gamma ray burst (GRB) afterglow light curves have the potential to inform us about presently unobserved stages in the aftermath of a neutron star merger. Using numerical simulations of short GRB afterglows we obtain an approximate…
The recently discovered GRB afterglow is believed to be described reasonably well by synchrotron emission from a slowing down relativistic shell that collides with an external medium. To compare theoretical models with afterglow…
We propose a new method for the classification of optically dark gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), based on the X-ray and optical-to-X-ray spectral indices of GRB afterglows, and utilizing the spectral capabilities of Swift. This method depends less…
The cumulative light curves of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) smooth the spiky nature of the running light curve. The cumulative count increases in an approximately linear way with time t for most bursts. In 19 out of 398 GRBs with T90 > 2s, the…
Long time photometric monitoring programs of gravitational lens systems are often carried on using modest equipment. The resolution of such observations is limited and some of the images may remain unresolved. It may be still possible to…
Recent studies indicate that the physical properties of eclipsing binaries can be extracted from the derivatives of their light curves. A classification scheme for the derivatives of light curves would be helpful for identifying key…
Aims. An attempt to classify gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with a low level of supervision using the state-of-the-start approaches stemming from graph theory was undertaken. Methods. Graph-based classification methods, relying on different…
Context. Swift data are revolutionising our understanding of Gamma Ray Bursts. Since bursts fade rapidly, it is desirable to create and disseminate accurate light curves rapidly. Aims. To provide the community with an online repository of…
The fluctuations observed in the light curves of some GRB-afterglows (such as GRB 021004) provide a useful tool to probe the circum-burst density profile and to probe the variations in the energy of blast-wave with time. We present a…
We present results for a large number of gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglow light curve calculations, done by combining high resolution two-dimensional relativistic hydrodynamics simulations using RAM with a synchrotron radiation code. Results…
We present the results of the optical, X-ray and gamma-ray analysis of some recent GRBs. The data were obtained by the automated P60 telescope and the Swift telescope (UVOT, XRT and BAT). We present some example fits for the lightcurves.…
