A limit on the variation of the speed of light arising from quantum gravity effects

A. A. Abdo, +236 more
- 19 Nov 2009 - 
TL;DR: The detection of emission up to ∼31 GeV from the distant and short GRB, and no evidence for the violation of Lorentz invariance is found, which disfavour quantum-gravity theories in which the quantum nature of space–time on a very small scale linearly alters the speed of light.

Fermi-LAT Observations of the Gamma-Ray Burst GRB 130427A

Markus Ackermann, +218 more
- 03 Jan 2014 - 
TL;DR: Temporal and spectral analyses of GRB 130427A challenge the widely accepted model that the nonthermal high-energy emission in the afterglow phase of GRBs is synchrotron emission radiated by electrons accelerated at an external shock.
