The polarization and beaming effect for GRBs
Both observations and theoretical models suggest that the emissions in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and the afterglows are beamed. We argue that the recent polarization measured in the afterglows gives further evidence of beaming in GRBs. In this approach, we adopted the polarization-magnitude relation of BL Lacertae objects to 4 GRBs with available polarization measurements and found that the data ...
متن کاملMagnetized birefringence and CMB polarization
The polarization plane of the cosmic microwave background radiation can be rotated either in a magnetized plasma or in the presence of a quintessential background with pseudoscalar coupling to electromagnetism. A unified treatment of these two phenomena is presented for cold and warm electron-ion plasmas at the pre-recombination epoch. The electron temperature is only relevant to the relativist...
متن کاملconstruction and validation of translation metacognitive strategy questionnaire and its application to translation quality
like any other learning activity, translation is a problem solving activity which involves executing parallel cognitive processes. the ability to think about these higher processes, plan, organize, monitor and evaluate the most influential executive cognitive processes is what flavell (1975) called “metacognition” which encompasses raising awareness of mental processes as well as using effectiv...
Magnetized GRB outflow model: weak reverse shock emission and short energy transfer timescale
We show that the absence of the bright optical flashes in most Swift Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) afterglows can be explained, if the reverse shock region is magnetized with a σ ∼ 1, or the emission spectrum of the electrons accelerated in the mildly magnetized (0.1 < σ < 1) reverse shock front is very soft, or the reverse shock of a non-magnetized outflow is sub-relativistic, where σ is the ratio of ...
متن کاملBirefringence, CMB polarization and magnetized B-mode
Even in the absence of a sizable tensor contribution, a B-mode polarization can be generated because of the competition between a pseudo-scalar background and pre-decoupling magnetic fields. By investigating the dispersion relations of a magnetoactive plasma supplemented by a pseudo-scalar interaction, the total B-mode polarization is shown to depend not only upon the plasma and Larmor frequenc...
