  1. 1. Fitting a photospheric prompt emission model to GRB data: The Kompaneets RMS approximation (KRA)

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Oscar Wistemar; [2023]
    Keywords : Gamma-Ray Bursts; Astrophysics; Engineering Physics; Gamma-Blixtar; Astrofysik; Teknisk Fysik;

    Abstract : Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are some of the most energetic events in the universe. Shocks occurring below the photosphere are likely radiation mediated shocks (RMSs) and are suspected to shape the spectra. Due to computational costs of simulating RMSs, models had not been fitted to data and a faster model was needed. READ MORE

  3. 2. The Thermodynamic Interaction of Light with Matter

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysik

    Author : Mirna Alhanash; [2019]
    Keywords : Blackbody radiation; Stefan-Boltzmann law; Planck’s law; Quantization; Band theory; Optical properties; Conductivity;

    Abstract : Light is electromagnetic radiation that could be shown in a spectrum with a wide range of wavelengths. Blackbody radiation is a type of thermal radiation and is an important topic to explore due to it being an ideal body that materials’ properties are often described in comparison to it. READ MORE
