Neutrino, Neutron, and Cosmic Ray Production in the External Shock Model of Gamma Ray Bursts
The hypothesis that ultra-high energy (& 1019 eV) cosmic rays (UHECRs) are accelerated by gamma-ray burst (GRB) blast waves is assumed to be correct. Implications of this assumption are then derived for the external shock model of gamma-ray bursts. The evolving synchrotron radiation spectrum in GRB blast waves provides target photons for the photomeson production of neutrinos and neutrons. Deca...
متن کاملModels of Gamma - Ray Bursts
GRBs have remained a puzzle for many high–energy astrophysicists since their discovery in 1967. With the advent of the X–ray satellites BeppoSAX and RossiXTE, it has been possible to carry out deep multi-wavelength observations of the counterparts associated with the long GRBs class just within a few hours of occurence, thanks to the observation of the fading X-ray emission that follows the mor...
متن کاملA Simple Test of the External Shock Model for the Prompt Emission in Gamma-Ray Bursts
It is demonstrated here that if the prompt GRB emission is produced by the simplest version of the external shock model, a specific relation should prevail between the observed duration, isotropic equivalent energy, and photon peak energy. In essence, this relation arises because both the burst duration and the typical energy of the emitted synchrotron photons depend on the same combination of ...
متن کاملThe External Shock Model of Gamma-Ray Bursts: Three Predictions and a Paradox Resolved
In the external shock model, gamma-ray burst (GRB) emissions are produced by the energization and deceleration of a thin relativistic blast wave due to its interactions with the circumburst medium (CBM). We study the physical properties of an analytic function which describes temporally-evolving GRB spectra in the limit of a smooth CBM with density n(x) ∝ x−η, where x is the radial coordinate. ...
