Gamma-ray bursts (GRB's), short and intense pulses of low-energy γ rays, have fascinated
astronomers and astrophysicists since their unexpected discovery in the late sixties. During�…

Gamma-ray bursts are the most luminous explosions in the Universe, and their origin and
mechanism are the focus of intense research and debate. More than three decades after�…

Long-duration γ-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most luminous sources of electromagnetic
radiation known in the Universe. They arise from outflows of plasma with velocities near the�…

A number of vertical mining algorithms have been proposed recently for association mining,
which have shown to be very effective and usually outperform horizontal approaches. The�…

The cosmological gamma-ray burst (GRB) phenomenon is reviewed. The broad
observational facts and empirical phenomenological relations of the GRB prompt emission�…

▪ Abstract The gamma ray burst phenomenon is reviewed from a theoretical point of view,
with emphasis on the fireball shock scenario of the prompt emission and the longer�…

As is well known, the requirement that gamma-ray bursts be optically thin to high-energy
photons yields a lower limit on the Lorentz factor (γ) of the expansion. In this paper, we�…

Recent months have witnessed dramatic progress in our understanding of short γ-ray burst
(SGRB) sources. There is now general agreement that SGRBs—or at least a substantial�…

Burst detection is the activity of finding abnormal aggregates in data streams. Such
aggregates are based on sliding windows over data streams. In some applications, we want�…

Since the successful launch of NASA's dedicated gamma-ray burst (GRB) mission, Swift, the
study of cosmological GRBs has entered a new era. Here I review the rapid observational�…
