Short-duration gamma-ray bursts
E Berger - Annual review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2014 - annualreviews.org
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) display a bimodal duration distribution with a separation between
the short-and long-duration bursts at about 2 s. The progenitors of long GRBs have been …

The internal-collision-induced magnetic reconnection and turbulence (ICMART) model of gamma-ray bursts
The recent Fermi observation of GRB 080916C shows that the bright photosphere emission
associated with a putative fireball is missing, which suggests that the central engine likely …

The supernova–gamma-ray burst connection
SE Woosley, JS Bloom - Annu. Rev. Astron. Astrophys., 2006 - annualreviews.org
Observations show that at least some gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) happen simultaneously
with core-collapse supernovae (SNe), thus linking by a common thread nature's two …

The protomagnetar model for gamma-ray bursts
Long duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) originate from the core collapse of massive stars,
but the identity of the central engine remains elusive. Previous work has shown that rapidly …
