Classification and Energetics of Cosmological Gamma-Ray Bursts Amir Shahmoradi Department of Physics / IFS / ICMB The University of Texas at Austin Robert J. Nemiroff Department of Physics Michigan Technological University Presented at 223 rd American Astronomical Society Meeting Washington, D.C., Janurary 5-9, 2014

The Amati relation One of the most cited topics in the field of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) Do all GRBs obey in the Amati relation? BATSE catalog of 2130 GRBs 97% 3% 156 GRBs Amati relation 4700 GRBs detected Amati & Della Valle (2013)

Hardness as a spectral peak estimator for GRBs (Shahmoradi & Nemiroff, 2010, MNRAS, 407, 2075 2090)

The peak energy distribution of 2130 BATSE GRBs (Shahmoradi & Nemiroff, 2010, MNRAS, 407, 2075 2090) LGRBs: ~ 140 kev SGRBs: ~ 520 kev

Classification of BATSE GRBs: fuzzy clustering vs. cutoff line (Shahmoradi & Nemiroff, 2011, MNRAS, 411, 1843 1856) 30% 70%

Model Construction - There is a need for multivariate Luminosity Functions (Shahmoradi, 2013, ApJ, 411, 1843 1856) Goal: constraining GRB energetics and prompt emission correlations Data: 1966 BATSE GRBs Model: multivariate (4-dimensional) log-normal distribution subject to BATSE trigger threshold Parameters in the model: isotropic peak luminosity ( ) total Isotropic gamma-ray emission ( ) rest-frame spectral peak energy (, ) rest-frame duration (, ) redshift ( ) unknown for BATSE GRBs Star Formation Rate + metallicity evolution + binary merger delay (for short GRBs) Method: Maximum Likelihood via Metropolis-Hastings algorithm

The Amati relation Larger dispersion is predicted (Shahmoradi, 2013, ApJ, 766, 111) Different slope is predicted (Shahmoradi, 2013, Stanford econf Proc. C1304143, paper 14; arxiv:1308.1097) ~ 0.58 0.04

Short and long GRBs exhibit similar prompt correlations

Short and long GRBs exhibit similar prompt correlations Correlating Parameters Long GRBs Pearson correlation Short GRBs Pearson correlation Peak Luminosity Isotopic Emission 0.93 0.92 Peak Luminosity Peak Energy, 0.47 0.54 Peak Luminosity Duration, 0.43 0.55 Isotropic Emission Peak Energy, 0.58 0.61 Isotropic Emission Duration, 0.58 0.63 Peak Energy Duration,, 0.29 0.14 Intrinsic prompt duration and peak energy are similarly positively correlated with the peak luminosity and isotropic emission.

Summary Multivariate log-normal distribution provides good fit to BATSE short and long GRB prompt emission data (peak luminosity, isotropic emission, intrinsic peak energy, intrinsic duration). The Amati (E iso -E P,z ) relation is confirmed, but with significantly higher dispersion and shallower slope of the regression line (0.25 vs. 0.55). Short GRBs exhibit very similar prompt emission correlations to long GRBs prompt correlations. BATSE Long GRBs data favor, though do not necessitate, a cosmic rate tracing metallicity evolution consistent with a cutoff Z/Z 0.2 0.5, assuming no luminosity redshift evolution. This methodology can be used as a quantified method of GRB classification based on prompt emission data.
