20 00 A GRB Tool Shed
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe the design of a suite of software tools to allow users to query Gamma Ray Burst (GRB) data and perform data mining expeditions. We call this suite of tools a shed (SHell for Expeditions using Datamining). Our schedule is to have a completed prototype (funded via the NASA AISRP) by February, 2002. Meanwhile, interested users will find a partially functioning tool shed at http://grb.mankato.msus.edu.

The correlations involving the long–GRB prompt emission energy represent a new key to understand the GRB physics. These correlations have been proved to be the tool which makes long–GRBs a new class of standard candles. Gamma Ray Bursts, being very powerful cosmological sources detected in the hard X-ray band, represent a new tool to investigate the Universe in a redshift range which is complem...

The attempt to secure conclusive, spectroscopic evidence for the GRB/SN connection has been a central theme in most GRB observing time proposals since the discovery of the very unusual GRB 980425 associated with the peculiar type Ib/c SN 1998bw. GRB 030329 provided this evidence to everybody’s satisfaction. In this contribution we show the results of a spectroscopic campaign of the supernova as...

The most interesting current open question in the theory of GRB afterglow is the propagation of jetted afterglows during the sideway expansion phase. Recent numerical simulations show hydrodynamic behavior that differs from the one suggested by simple analytic models. Still, somewhat surprisingly, the calculated light curves show a ‘jet break’ at about the expected time. These results suggest t...

We report on optical observations on GRB 000210 obtained with the 2.56m Nordic Optical Telescope and the 1.54-m Danish Telescope starting 12.4 hours after the gamma-ray event. The content of the X-ray error box determined by the Chandra satellite is discussed.

We show that a significant fraction of the energy of a γ-ray burst (GRB) is probably converted to a burst of 1017–1019 eV neutrinos and multiple GeV γ’s that follow the main GRB by ∼ 10 s. If GRB’s accelerate protons to ∼ 1020 eV, a suggestion that recently gained support from observations of GRB afterglow, then both the neutrinos and the gammas may be detectable.
