Relativistic 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 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...
متن کاملHigh Energy Radiation from Gamma Ray Bursts
Gamma-ray burst (GRB) engines are probed most intimately during the prompt gamma-ray luminous phase when the expanding blast wave is closest to the explosion center. Using GRBs 990123 and 940217 as guides, we briefly review observations of high-energy emission from GRBs and summarize some problems in GRB physics. γγ transparency arguments imply relativistic beaming. The parameters that go into ...
متن کاملGravitational Radiation from Gamma-Ray Bursts∗
Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) are the most relativistic objects known so far, involving, on one hand an ultra-relativistic motion with a Lorentz factor Γ > 100 and on the other hand an accreting newborn black hole. The two main routes leading to this scenario: binary neutron star mergers and Collapsar the collapse of a rotating star to a black hole, are classical sources for gravitational radiation. ...
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...
