快速随访时代的伽马射线暴

Gamma Ray Bursts in the Era of Rapid Followup

C. G. Mundell, C. Guidorzi, I. A. Steele

摘要:

我们提出了一个现状报告伽马射线暴(GRB)的研究在快速跟踪的时代,使用世界上最大的机器人光学望远镜-2米利物浦和福克斯望远镜。在GRB物理学中未解决的关键问题的背景下,我们描述了(1)我们的创新软件,允许实时自动分析和解释GRB光变曲线,(2)新颖的仪器,允许独特类型的观测(特别是早期偏振测量)和(3)机器人观测非常适合的关键科学问题和发现,最后,通过结合快速光学观测和其他波长的同步观测,总结了目前对伽马射线暴物理学的理解。

英文摘要:

We present a status report on the study of gamma-ray bursts (GRB) in the era of rapid follow-up using the world's largest robotic optical telescopes - the 2-m Liverpool and Faulkes telescopes. Within the context of key unsolved issues in GRB physics, we describe (1) our innovative software that allows real-time automatic analysis and interpretation of GRB light curves, (2) the novel instrumentation that allows unique types of observations (in particular, early time polarisation measurements) and (3) the key science questions and discoveries to which robotic observations are ideally suited, concluding with a summary of current understanding of GRB physics provided by combining rapid optical observations with simultaneous observations at other wavelengths.
