Short Gamma-Ray Bursts (SGRBs) are expected to form from the coalescence of compact binaries, either of primordial origin or from dynamical interactions in globular clusters. In this paper, we investigate the possibility that the offset and afterglow brightness of a SGRB can help revealing the origin of its progenitor binary. We find that a SGRB is likely to result from the primordial channel if it is observed within 10 kpc from the center of a massive galaxy and shows a detectable afterglow. The same conclusion holds if it is 100 kpc away from a small, isolated galaxy and shows a weak afterglow. On the other hand, a dynamical origin is suggested for those SGRBs with observable afterglow either at a large separation from a massive, isolated galaxy or with an offset of 10-100 kpc from a small, isolated galaxy. We discuss the possibility that SGRBs from the dynamical channel are hosted in intra-cluster globular clusters and find that GRB 061201 may fall within this scenario.
The aim of the present work is to study the potential short-term atmospheric and biospheric influence of Gamma Ray Bursts on the Earth. We focus in the ultraviolet flash at the planets surface, which occurs as a result of the retransmission of the $g
We present a detailed analysis of two well-localized, highly offset short gamma-ray bursts---GRB~070809 and GRB~090515---investigating the kinematic evolution of their progenitors from compact object formation until merger. Calibrating to observation
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
We study the Generalized Chaplygin gas model (GCGM) using Gamma-ray bursts as cosmological probes. In order to avoid the so-called circularity problem we use cosmology-independent data set and Bayesian statistics to impose constraints on the model pa
We review recent results on the high-redshift universe and the cosmic evolution obtained using Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) as tracers of high-redshift galaxies. Most of the results come from photometric and spectroscopic observations of GRB host galaxies
