Spectra of Unsteady Wind Models of Gamma-Ray Bursts
Abstract
We calculate the spectra expected from unsteady relativistic wind models of gamma-ray bursts, suitable for events of arbitrary duration. The spectral energy distribution of the burst is calculated over photon energies spanning from eV to TeV, for a range of event durations and variability timescales. The relative strength of the emission at different wavelengths can provide valuable information on the particle acceleration, radiation mechanisms and the possible types of models.
