[Okc-wp4] EO meeting, Thursday 27th (13:00)

[Francesco Taddia]

Hi all,

two talks at our next EO meeting:


1) Christoffer Lundman will talk about: Prompt GRB emission from "deep" radiation mediated shocks

Abstract:
The mechanism that produces the prompt GRB emission is still unknown. One attractive scenario involves a variable central engine that produces shocks below the GRB photosphere. I will discuss recent work regarding the radiation produced by such "deep shocks." In particular, we've shown that the simplest shock scenario produces a smoothly broken power law spectrum with an exponential cut-off at high energies. I will also discuss possible ways of fitting such spectra to observations.

2) And I (Francesco Taddia) will present the results from two recent papers
on the peculiar supernovae iPTF14hls and iPTF15dtg:

on iPTF14hls:
https://arxiv.org/abs/1806.10001 <https://arxiv.org/abs/1806.10001>

on iPTF15dtg:
https://arxiv.org/abs/1806.10000 <https://arxiv.org/abs/1806.10000>

see you in the KTH meeting room, 5th floor.

cheers

/Francesco
