  1. Tight Liso-Ep-Γ0 Relation of Long Gamma-Ray Bursts Enwei Liang Guangxi University, China IAUS 324: New Frontiers in BH Astrophys. 2016.9.12-9.16, Ljubljana Selovenia

  2. General Picture of Gamma-Ray Bursts GRBs and their afterglows are produced from extremely relativistic jets powered by the central engine. V ≥ 0.9999c

  3. Estimating the Initial Γ0 of GRB jets With the fireball deceleration time(e.g.,Sari & Piran 1999) With the "compactness" argument: (e.g.,Lithwick & Sari 2001) With the photosphere radiation: (e.g. Zou + 2015) Liang + 2010 Tang + 2014 Peng + 2014

  4. Optical and X-ray afterglow Cartoon Lightcurves Optical Emission components X-ray Emission components Zhang et al. 2006, ApJ; Li, Liang et al. 2012, ApJ

  5. Relation between afterglow onset and prompt gamma-rays • Optical afterglow onset is detected for 1/3 of GRBs • Onset peak luminosity is correlated with prompt gamma-ray luminosity. Liang et al. 2010, ApJ

  6. Eiso (or Liso)-Γ0 Relation A tight correlation between the Eiso and the Lorentz factor of GRB fireball Liang et al. 2010,2013, ApJ; LV et al. 2012, ApJL

  7. Eiso (or Liso)-Ep Relation These relations was found with GRBs detected with BeppoSAX and also confirmed with Swift/BAT and Fermi/GBM GRBs. Lu et al. 2012, ApJ Amati et al. 2012, IJMPD Yonetoku et al. 2004, ApJ

  8. Eiso (or Liso)-Ep vs. Eiso (or Liso)-Γ0 Relation • Is the large intrinsic dispersion of pair correlations due to missing of the third part? • Relation among the three parameters? Liang et al. 2010, ApJ Amati et al. 2012, IJMPD

  9. A tight Liso-Ep,z-Γ0 relation GRB 060218: Γ0~ 2.3 (Soderberg + 2006) Liang + 2015, ApJ

  10. A tight Liso-Ep,z-Γ0relation Double check with GRBs whose Γ0 are derived from the spectral cutoff energy observed with Fermi/LAT. GRB 060218: Γ0~ 2.3 (Soderberg + 2006) Liang + 2015, ApJ

  11. Liso-Ep,z-Γ0as a new GRB cosmology ruler? • Ejet-Ep relation (Ghirlanda + 2004) • Eiso-Ep-tjet relation (Liang & Zhang 2005) Dai, Liang, & Xu 2004, ApJL; Liang & Zhang 2005, ApJ

  12. Liso-Ep,z-Γ0as a new GRB cosmology ruler? • Advantages: • A tighter relation than previous ones. • Issues: • Needing to be confirmed with LL-GRBs (moderate relativistic jets?) • Needing to geometric correction to Liso • Identifying the cosmic evolution of jet luminosity. ?

  20. Summary Thanks! • Measuring the jet initial Lorentz factors of GRBs with the fireball deceleration time observed in the optical band range from ~100 to 1000. • The Lorentz factors are correlated with Liso (or Eiso), and a tighter correlation is found by adding Ep. • The Liso-Ep,z-Γ0 may be a promising GRB cosmology ruler, but issues are still there. • Our new observational project is going on for pushing the cosmology use of this relation .
