Our Sample: 87 long GRBs • with confirmed redshift • well-sampled light curves observed in R-band OpticalParameters We consider the extrapolated optical luminosity Le immediately after the corresponding duration of the prompt - ray emission in the rest frame of the source. The extrapolation is performed using the slope calculated at early stage. We extrapolate the total energy Eto and total time duration Ttot of the optical afterglow. • Extrapolated • Luminosity • Total Optical Energy • Total OpticalDuration Many faces of GRB phenomena -optics vs high energy SAO Workshop, October 12-16, 2009

  17. Discussion&Conclusion Our statistical analysis has tried to answer the following questions: • Is there evidence of cosmological evolution on γ-ray burst features? • Is there evidence of cosmological evolution on optical afterglow? • Despite the morphological differences between the high-energy emission and their afterglows, can we assume a universal underlying structure for both emissions ? • The intrinsic properties of prompt γ-ray emission show some degree of correlation with their afterglows or the afterglow 'forget' the initial physical conditions ?

  18. Discussion&Conclusion • We have demonstrated, for a sample of 87 GRB with confirmed spectroscopic redshift, that the properties of the γ-ray emission are not affected by any cosmological evolution. • On the other hand the first stage of the afterglow evolution has a dependence on redshift and is even clearer if we consider the peaks that arise when the prompt γ-ray emission has been completely extinguished. • There are correlations between the luminosity, the total energy and the duration of the γ-ray and optical emission separately, which can arise from universal features of the observed light curves. • The intrinsic properties of prompt γ-ray emission show no degree of correlation with their afterglows.
