Line emission from gamma-ray burst environments
The time and angle dependent line and continuum emission from a dense torus around a cosmological gamma-ray burst source is simulated, taking into account photoionization, collisional ionization, recombination, and electron heating and cooling due to various processes. The importance of the hydrodynamical interaction between the torus and the expanding blast wave is stressed. Due to the rapid d...
متن کاملX - and Gamma - Ray Line Emission Processes
This chapter is intended to provide a general presentation of the atomic and nuclear processes responsible for X-ray line and gamma-ray line emission in various astrophysical environments. I consider line production from hot plasmas, from accelerated particle interactions , from the decay of radioactive nuclei synthesized in stars and from positron annihilation. Spectroscopic properties of thes...
متن کاملPhotospheres, Comptonization and X-ray Lines in Gamma Ray Bursts
Steep X-ray spectral slopes, X-ray excesses and preferred spectral energy breaks in the 01-0.3 MeV range are discussed as the possible consequences of the photospheric component of the GRB relativistic outflow, and of pair breakdown in internal shocks leading to comptonization on semirelativistic electrons or MHD waves. We also discuss the X-ray and UV spectra of GRB afterglows occuring in a de...
متن کاملX-Ray Emission of Gamma-Ray Bursts
X-ray emission can provide a crucial diagnostic of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). We calculate the X-ray and gamma-ray spectra of impulsive acceleration episodes related to GRB pulses. We use the synchrotron shock model (SSM) as a basis of our calculations. We show that the current data on soft-to-hard emission ratios of GRB pulse emission are in agreement with the SSM. In particular, GRB pulse emiss...
