BATSE - Summary
• GRBs are Isotropic – The beginning of the end for Galactic Models, but persistent theorists move the Galactic Models to the Halo
• GRBs come in all shapes and sizes but two obvious subgroups exist - I) Short, Hard Bursts II) Long, Soft Bursts

Radio Twinkling can also be used to estimate the GRB distance: consistent with z=0.835
Just as the Earth’sAtmosphere Causes light To scatterCausing pointSources to“twinkle”, the Interstellar Medium causesRadio emissionTo twinkle. WhenThe burst gets Large enough,Like planets, the Twinkling stops.

• GRBs trace brightest regions in hosts
• Hosts are sub-luminous irregular galaxies

What we’ve learned from GRB Hosts!
• Hosts of long GRBs are star-forming galaxies
• GRBs trace the stellar distribution (in distance from galaxy center)
• GRBs occur in dense environments (star forming regions?)

Using GRBs as Cosmological Probes
Gamma-Ray Bursts are observed at extremely high redshifts and can be used to study the early universe.

Intervening absorbersLy forest: deviation from what is already known from quasar forests. ``Proximity effect'' should be much reduced for GRBs. An accurate determination of dn/dz at high z has strong implications for investigations of the re-ionization epoch, since the optical depth due to Ly line blanketing is evaluated by extrapolating the Ly dn/dz measured at lower-z.MgII and CIV absorbers: Incidence of MgII absorbers ~4 times higher than along QSO sight-lines. Incidence of CIV absorbers similar… WHY???

GRB Environments II: Studying the environment using radio
and optical observation of GRBs
• Density profiles are different for different environments: massive stars will be enveloped by a wind profile.
• These different density profiles produce different radio, optical emission.

Afterglow and GRB Energetics IV:
• As we learned yesterday, afterglows allowed us to calculate redshifts.
• Assuming a cosmology, we can then get distances.
• Assuming isotropic explosions, we can estimate the GRB energies! These energies range over many orders of magnitude.

Energy and Beaming Corrections
• The dispersion in isotropic GRG energies results from a variation in the opening (or viewing) angle
• The mean opening angle is about 4 degrees (i.e. fb-1 ~ 500 )
• Geometry-corrected energies are narrowly clustered (1=2x)

SN/GRB connection!GRBs have SN-like outbursts. But these bursts are beamed, and we won’t see all
explosions as a GRB. What do we make of the SN/GRB connection:I) All GRBs produce SNe?II) All SNe are GRBs (only those observed along the jet
axis are GRBs)?
Are either of these true?
![Page 86: GRB](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081604/56815596550346895dc371b2/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
Ambitious Theorists – New SN Mechanism
• Collapsar Theorists argue I) is true, but not II)
• Others argue that all supernovae have jets (e.g. asymmetries in SN1987A) and the standard SN engine is wrong!
• SN-like is NOT SN
![Page 87: GRB](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081604/56815596550346895dc371b2/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
What fraction of SNe are GRBs?
The GRB community tends to not talk to the SN community. Hence this problem has lingered for a long time. The simple fact is that the SN-like spectra and lightcurves are quite different than true SNe.
But let’s assume we don’t know this, how else can we tell? - Radio!

afterglow makes a transition to NR expansion– no geometric uncertainties – can employ robust Sedov
formulation for dynamics– compare with equipartition
Most energy estimates require knowledge of the geometry of the outflow
– radius and cross check with ISS-derived radius
