Viewing Short Gamma-Ray Bursts From a Different Angle

Viewing Short Gamma-Ray Bursts From a Different Angle

The detection of a faint, short gamma-ray burst (GRB 170817A) in coincidence with the gravitational wave (GW 170817) detection by LIGO/Virgo is at odds with the expected known luminosity and redshift distribution of short GRBs (sGRB). Examining the observer-frame parameter space of all Fermi-GBM sGR...
