Gamma-Ray Bursts in the Swift Era | | Bing Zhang
; | | Date: |
18 Jan 2007 | | Abstract: | Since the successful launch of NASA’s dedicated gamma-ray burst (GRB) mission, Swift, the study of cosmological GRBs has entered a new era. Here I review the rapid observational and theoretical progress in this dynamical research field during the first two-year of the Swift mission, focusing on how observational breakthroughs have revolutionized our understanding of the physical origins of GRBs. Besides summarizing how Swift helps to solve some pre-Swift mysteries, I also list some outstanding problems raised by the Swift observations. An outlook of GRB science in the future, especially in the GLAST era, is briefly discussed. | | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0701520 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
