Spectral Hardness and Evolution of Swift Gamma-Ray Bursts and X-Ray Afterglows

Spectral hardness of gamma-ray bursts can be characterized by either hardness ratio or peak energy, and the inconsistency of these parameters can reflect spectral diversity and complexity. We have chosen 310 Swift bursts with well-measured X-ray afterglows to analyze the distributions of their peak...
