Interpretation of double structure in the celestial γ-ray bursts

ABSTRACT THE essentially isotropic distribution of the Vela satellite _γ_-ray bursts1 implies that the sources are either very local and galactic, or very remote and extragalactic. Of the

theories for a remote origin there are two schools of thought, either that these _γ_-rays originate in shock waves during the formation of type II supernovae2 or that they represent

transient pulses of blackbody emission associated with the collapse of a white dwarf to a neutron star3. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription
