A Statistical Treatment of the Gamma-ray Burst “no Host Galaxy” Problem: I. Methodology
If gamma-ray bursts originate in galaxies at cosmological distances, the host galaxy should be detected if a burst error box is searched deep enough; are the host galaxies present? We present and implement a statistical methodology which evaluates whether the observed galaxy detections in a burst’s error box are consistent with the presence of the host galaxy, or whether all the detections can ...
متن کاملA Statistical Treatment of the Gamma-ray Burst “no Host Galaxy” Problem: Ii. Energies of Standard Candle Bursts
With the discovery that the afterglows after some bursts are coincident with faint galaxies, the search for host galaxies is no longer a test of whether bursts are at cosmological distances, but rather a test of particular cosmological models. The methodology we developed to investigate the original “no host galaxy” problem is equally valid for testing different cosmological models, and is appl...

این رساله به مساله احتجاب الهی و مشکلات برهان مبتنی بر این مساله میپردازد. مساله احتجاب الهی مساله ای به قدمت ادیان است که به طور خاصی در مورد ادیان ابراهیمی اهمیت پیدا میکند. در ادیان ابراهیمی با توجه به تعالی خداوند و در عین حال خالقیت و حضور او و سخن گفتن و ارتباط شهودی او با بعضی از انسانهای ساکن زمین مساله ای پدید میاید با پرسشهایی از قبیل اینکه چرا ارتباط مستقیم ویا حداقل ارتباط وافی به ب...
15 صفحه اولThe Host Galaxy of the Gamma – Ray Burst 971214
We report on Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations of the host galaxy of GRB 971214, taken four months after the burst. The redshift of the proposed host galaxy at z = 3.418, combined with optical and radio observations of the burst afterglow, implies the extremely large isotropic energy release from the burst in γ-rays of Eγ ≈ 3 × 10 53 erg, some two orders of magnitude higher than the pre...
متن کاملThe Swift Gamma-ray Burst Host Galaxy Legacy Survey. I. Sample Selection and Redshift Distribution
We introduce the Swift Gamma-Ray Burst Host Galaxy Legacy Survey (“SHOALS”), a multiobservatory high-redshift galaxy survey targeting the largest unbiased sample of long-duration gammaray burst hosts yet assembled (119 in total). We describe the motivations of the survey and the development of our selection criteria, including an assessment of the impact of various observability metrics on the ...
