Gamma-Ray Burst Pulses and Lateral Jet Motion
We propose that gamma-ray burst (GRB) pulses are produced when highly relativistic jets sweep across an observer’s line of sight. We hypothesize that axisymmetric jet profiles, coupled with special relativistic effects, produce the time-reversed properties of GRB pulses. Curvature resulting from rap...
