Exploring Physically Motivated Models to Fit Gamma-Ray Burst Spectra

We explore fitting gamma-ray burst (GRB) spectra with three physically motivated models, and thus revisit the viability of synchrotron radiation as the primary source of GRB prompt emission. We pick a sample of 100 bright GRBs observed by the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM), based on their energ...
