Polarization of Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows in the Context of Non-axisymmetric Structured Jets
As the most energetic explosion in the Universe, gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are usually believed to be generated by relativistic jets. Some mechanisms (e.g., internal nonuniform magnetic dissipation processes or the precession of the central engine) may generate asymmetric jet structures, which are cha...
