Relativistic Shells and Gamma-Ray Bursts
In many models of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) relativistic shells are responsible for the overall envelope of emission. We use kinematics and symmetry to calculate the time history and spectral evolution expected from a relativistic shell including effects from intrinsic variations in the shell’s intensity and spectra. We find that the decay phase of an envelope is produced by photons delayed by th...
متن کاملRelativistic Outflows in Gamma-ray Bursts
The possibility that gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) were not isotropic emissions was devised theoretically as a way to ameliorate the huge energetic budget implied by the standard fireball model for these powerful phenomena. However, the mechanism by which after the quasy-isotropic release of a few 10 erg yields a collimated ejection of plasma could not be satisfactory explained analytically. The reas...
متن کاملRelativistic Jets from Collapsars: Gamma-Ray Bursts
Growing observational evidence supports the proposition that gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are powered by relativistic jets from massive helium stars whose cores have collapsed to black holes and an accretion disk (collapsars). We model the propagation of relativistic jets through the stellar progenitor and its wind using a two-dimensional special relativistic hydrodynamics code based on the PPM form...
متن کاملHydrodynamic Collimation of Relativistic Outflows: Semianalytic Solutions and Application to Gamma-Ray Bursts
A model is developed for the confinement and collimation of a baryon poor outflow by its surrounding medium. Both, confinement by kinetic pressure of a static corona, and confinement by the ram pressure of a supersonic wind emanating from a disk surrounding the inner source are considered. Solutions are presented for the structure of the shocked layers of deflected baryon poor jet (BPJ) and ext...
متن کاملCoherent Radiation in Gamma-Ray Bursts and Relativistic Collisionless Shocks
We suggest that coherent radiation may occur in relativistic collisionless shocks via twostream Weibel instabilities. The coherence amplifies the radiation power by many orders [∼ 10 in Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs)] and particles cool very fast before being randomized. We imply (1) GRBs accompany strong infrared emission, (2) protons efficiently transfer energy to electrons and (3) prompt GRBs might...
