Jets in a Gamma-Ray Burst during Its Prompt Emission: Evolution of the Lorentz Factor
Knowledge about the Lorentz factor and its evolution of relativistic jets in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is crucial to understand their physics. An exact value of the bulk Lorentz factor can be estimated based on a high-energy spectral cutoff, which may appear in the GRBs’ prompt emission owing to the a...
