Evidence for a photospheric component in the prompt emission of the short grb 120323a and its effects on the grb hardness-luminosity relation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the spectral properties of a short gamma-ray burst (GRB) and its evolution using two spectral models: (1) a single emission component scenario, where the spectrum is modeled by the empirical Band function (a broken power law), and (2) a two-component scenario where thermal (a Planck-like function) emission is observed simultaneously with a non-thermal component (a Band function).
Journal ArticleDOI

Polarisation studies of the prompt gamma-ray emission from GRB 041219a using the spectrometer aboard INTEGRAL

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured linear polarisation in gamma-ray burst prompt emission with the potential to significantly constrain models using the spectrometer aboard INTEGRAL, which is an ideal candidate for such a study.
