The comprehensive statistical analysis of Swift X-ray light-curves, collecting data from six years of operation, revealed the existence of a universal scaling among the isotropic energy emitted in the rest frame 10-10^4 keV energy band during the prompt emission (E_{gamma,iso}), the peak of the prompt emission energy spectrum (E_{pk}), and the X-ray energy emitted in the 0.3-10 keV observed energy band (E_{X,iso}). In this paper we show that this three-parameter correlation is robust and does not depend on our definition of E_{X,iso}. It is shared by long, short, and low-energetic GRBs, differently from the well-known E_{gamma,iso}-E_{pk} correlation. We speculate that the ultimate physical property that regulates the GRB properties is the outflow Lorentz factor.

We present multi-band results for GRB071010B based on Swift, Suzaku, and ground-based optical observations. This burst is an ideal target to evaluate the robustness of the ${rm E^{src}_{peak}-E_{iso}}$ and ${rm E^{src}_{peak}-E_{gamma}}$ relations, w hose studies have been in stagnation due to the lack of the combined estimation of $rm E^{src}_{peak}$ and long term optical monitoring. The joint prompt spectral fitting using Swift/Burst Alert Telescope and Suzaku/Wide-band All sky Monitor data yielded the spectral peak energy as E$^{src}_{peak}$ of $86.5^{+6.4}_{-6.3}$ keV and E$_{iso}$ of $2.25^{+0.19}_{-0.16}times10^{52}$ erg with $z=0.947$. The optical afterglow light curve is well fitted by a simple power law with temporal index $alpha=-0.60pm0.02$. The lower limit of temporal break in the optical light curve is 9.8 days. Our multi-wavelength analysis reveals that GRB071010B follows ${rm E^{src}_{peak}-E_{iso}}$ but violates the ${rm E^{src}_{peak}-E_{gamma}}$ and ${rm E_{iso}-E^{src}_{peak}-t^{src}_{jet}}$ at more than the 3$sigma$ level.
In this paper we give a brief review of our recent studies on the long and short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected Swift, in an effort to understand the puzzle of classifying GRBs. We consider that it is still an appealing conjecture that both long an d short GRBs are drawn from the same parent sample by observational biases.

The gravitational-wave detectors LIGO and Virgo together with their electromagnetic partner facilities have transformed the modus operandi in which we seek information about the Universe. The first ever-observed neutron-star merger---GW170817---confi rmed the association of short gamma-ray bursts with neutron-star mergers and the production of heavy (r-process) elements. Based on recent theoretical and observational developments, I briefly present and discuss a conjecture, namely that compact accretion disks in both short and long gamma-ray bursts synthesize most of the heavy r-process elements in the Universe. The upcoming era of multi-messenger astronomy may allow us to verify or falsify this conjecture.

Employing two samples containing of 56 and 59 well-separated FRED (fast rise and exponential decay) gamma-ray burst (GRB) pulses whose spectra are fitted by the Band spectrum and Compton model, respectively, we have investigated the evolutionary slop e of $E_{p}$ (where $E_{p}$ is the peak energy in the $ u F u$ spectrum) with time during the pulse decay phase. The bursts in the samples were observed by the Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) on the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory. We first test the $E_{p}$ evolutionary slope during the pulse decay phase predicted by Lu et al. (2007) based on the model of highly symmetric expanding fireballs in which the curvature effect of the expanding fireball surface is the key factor concerned. It is found that the evolutionary slopes are normally distributed for both samples and concentrated around the values of 0.73 and 0.76 for Band and Compton model, respectively, which is in good agreement with the theoretical expectation of Lu et al. (2007). However, the inconsistence with their results is that the intrinsic spectra of most of bursts may bear the Comptonized or thermal synchrotron spectrum, rather than the Band spectrum. The relationships between the evolutionary slope and the spectral parameters are also checked. We show the slope is correlated with $E_{p}$ of time-integrated spectra as well as the photon flux but anticorrelated with the lower energy index $alpha$. In addition, a correlation between the slope and the intrinsic $E_{p}$ derived by using the pseudo-redshift is also identified. The mechanisms of these correlations are unclear currently and the theoretical interpretations are required.
Differential cross sections at $t=t_{text{min}}$ and decay asymmetries for the $gamma prightarrowphi p$ reaction have been measured using linearly polarized photons in the range 1.5 to 2.9 GeV. These cross sections were used to determine the Pomeron strength factor. The cross sections and decay asymmetries are consistently described by the $t$-channel Pomeron and pseudoscalar exchange model in the $E_{gamma}$ region above 2.37 GeV. In the lower energy region, an excess over the model prediction is observed in the energy dependence of the differential cross sections at $t=t_{text{min}}$. This observation suggests that additional processes or interference effects between Pomeron exchange and other processes appear near the threshold region.
