A Possible Cepheid-Like Luminosity Estimator for the Long Gamma-Ray Bursts
We present a possible Cepheid-like luminosity estimator for long gamma-ray bursts based on the variability of their light curves. To construct the luminosity estimator, we use CGRO/BATSE data for 13 bursts, Wind/KONUS data for 5 bursts, Ulysses/GRB data for 1 burst, and NEAR/XGRS data for 1 burst. Spectroscopic redshifts, peak fluxes, and high resolution light curves are available for 11 of the...
متن کاملThe Luminosity–ep Relation within Gamma–ray Bursts and Implications for Fireball Models
Using a sample of 2408 time–resolved spectra for 91 BATSE GRBs presented by Preece et al., we show that the relation between the isotropic–equivalent luminosity (Liso) and the peak energy (E ′ p) of the νFν spectrum in the cosmological rest frame, Liso ∝ E ′2 p , holds within these bursts, and also holds among these GRBs, assuming that the burst rate as a function of redshift is proportional to...
متن کاملTesting a new luminosity/redshift indicator for γ-ray bursts
We have tested a relative spectral lag (RSL) method suggested earlier as a luminosity/redshift (or distance) estimator, using the generalized method by Schaefer & Collazzi. We find the derivations from the luminosity/redshift-RSL (L/R-RSL) relation are comparable with the corresponding observations. Applying the luminosityRSL relation to two different GRB samples, we find that there exist no vi...
متن کاملEpeak Relation of Gamma-Ray Bursts
In this Letter we show that there is a redshift degeneracy in the Eiso −Epeak relation of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). If a GRB has a redshift solved from the Eiso − Epeak relation that lies in the range of 0.9 < z < 20, a GRB that has the same observed fluence and peak spectral energy but is at a different redshift in that range also satisfies the Eiso − Epeak relation within 1-σ error, implying a...
متن کاملEvidence for Luminosity Evolution of Long Gamma-ray Bursts in Swift Data
We compute the luminosity function (LF) and the formation rate of long gamma ray bursts (GRBs) by fitting the observed differential peak flux distribution obtained by the BATSE satellite in two different scenarios: i) the GRB luminosity evolves with redshift and ii) GRBs form preferentially in low–metallicity environments. In both cases, model predictions are consistent with the Swift number co...
