The energy release in prompt γ- and X-rays is a fundamental parameter in the study of the explosion mechanism and the central engines of GRBs. Though the apparent standardizability of GRB energetics have lead some to suggest that GRBs might be useful …
Gamma-ray burst astronomy has undergone a revolution in the last three years, spurred by the discovery of fading long-wavelength counterparts. We now know that at least the long duration GRBs lie at cosmological distances with estimated …

Recent analysis of relativistically expanding shells of cosmological γ-ray bursts has shown that if the bursts are cosmological, then most likely total energy (E$_0$) is standard and not peak luminosity (L$_0$). Assuming a flat Friedmann cosmology …
