Average cosmological invariant parameters (ACIPs) are calculated for six groups of BATSE cosmic gamma-ray bursts selected by their peak fluxes on the 1.024 s time scale. The ACIPs represent the average temporal and spectral properties of these events equally in the observer frame of reference and in the co-moving frames of outbursting emitters. The parameters are determined separately for rise fronts and for back slopes of bursts, defined as the time profiles before and after the main peaks, respectively. The ACIPs for the rise fronts are found to be different for different intensity groups, while the ACIPs for the back slopes show no significant dependence on intensity. We conclude that emitters of bursts manifest standard average properties only during the back slopes of bursts.

We present the Hubble diagram (HD) of 66 Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) derived using only data from their X - ray afterglow lightcurve. To this end, we use the recently updated L_X - T_a correlation between the break time T_a and the X - ray luminosity L_X
measured at T_a calibrated from a sample of Swift GRBs with lightcurves well fitted by the Willingale et al. (2007) model. We then investigate the use of this HD to constrain cosmological parameters when used alone or in combination with other data showing that the use of GRBs leads to constraints in agreement with previous results in literature. We finally argue that a larger sample of high luminosity GRBs can provide a valuable information in the search for the correct cosmological model.
Due to their extreme luminosities, gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) can be detected in hostile regions of galaxies, nearby and at very high redshift, making them important cosmological probes. The investigation of galaxies hosting long-duration GRBs (whose pr
ogenitor is a massive star) demonstrated their connection to star formation. Still, the link to the total galaxy population is controversial, mainly because of the small-number statistics: ~ 1,100 are the GRBs detected so far, ~ 280 those with measured redshift, and ~ 70 the hosts studied in detail. These are typically low-redshift (z < 1.5), low luminosity, metal poor, and star-forming galaxes. On the other hand, at 1.5< z <4, massive, metal rich and dusty, interacting galaxies are not uncommon. The most distant population (z > 4) is poorly explored, but the deep limits reached point towards very small and star-forming objects, similar to the low-z population. This `back to the future behavior is a natural consequence of the connection of long GRBs to star formation in young regions of the universe.
X-ray absorption of $gamma$-ray burst (GRB) afterglows is prevalent yet poorly understood. X-ray derived neutral hydrogen column densities ($N_{rm H}$) of GRB X-ray afterglows show an increase with redshift, which might give a clue for the origin of
this absorption. We use more than 350 X-ray afterglows with spectroscopic redshift ($z$) from the Swift XRT repository as well as over 100 Ly,$alpha$ absorption measurements in $z>1.6$ sources. The observed trend of the average optical depth $tau$ at 0.5 keV is consistent with both a sharp increase of host $N_{rm H}(z)$, and an absorbing diffuse intergalactic medium, along with decreasing host contribution to $tau$. We analyze a sub-sample of high-$z$ GRBs with $N_{rm H}$ derived both from the X-ray afterglow and the Ly,$alpha$ line. The increase of X-ray derived $N_{rm H}(z)$ is contrasted by no such increase in the Ly,$alpha$ derived column density. We argue that this discrepancy implies a lack of association between the X-ray and Ly,$alpha$ absorbers at high-$z$. This points towards the X-ray absorption at high $z$ being dominated by an intervening absorber, which lends credibility to an absorbing intergalactic medium contribution.
We study the nature of long gamma ray burst (LGRB) progenitors using cosmological simulations of structure formation and galactic evolution. LGRBs are potentially excellent tracers of stellar evolution in the early universe. We developed a Monte Carl
o numerical code which generates LGRBs coupled to cosmological simulations. The simulations allows us to follow the ormation of galaxies self-consistently. We model the detectability of LGRBs and their host galaxies in order to compare results with observational data obtained by high-energy satellites. Our code also includes stochastic effects in the observed rate of LGRBs.
We use galaxy catalogues constructed by combining high-resolution N-body simulations with semi-analytic models of galaxy formation to study the properties of Long Gamma-Ray Burst (LGRB) host galaxies. We assume that LGRBs originate from the death of
massive young stars and analyse how results are affected by different metallicity constraints on the progenitor stars. As expected, the host sample with no metallicity restriction on the progenitor stars provides a perfect tracer of the cosmic star formation history. When LGRBs are required to be generated by low-metallicity stars, they trace a decreasing fraction of the cosmic star formation rate at lower redshift, as a consequence of the global increase in metallicity. We study the properties of host galaxies up to high redshift (~9), finding that they typically have low-metallicity (Z<0.5 Z_sun) and that they are small (M<10^9 M_sun), bluer and younger than the average galaxy population, in agreement with observational data. They are also less clustered than typical L_* galaxies in the Universe, and their descendents are massive, red and reside in groups of galaxies with halo mass between 10^{13} M_sun to 10^{14} M_sun.
