Modelling the prompt and afterglow emission of gamma-ray bursts
This thesis studies the broadband behaviour of GRBs by fitting a detailed spectral/temporal model to both the prompt and afterglow hard and soft X-ray emission observed by the Swift satellite. The prompt emission is decomposed into pulses which are fitted individually while the afterglow is modelled...
