Gamma-Ray Bursts, Polarization

Scientific paper

Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) are the most luminous objects in the universe. Observations show that at least some GRBs are associated with stellar collapses, although the detailed physical mechanism remains a mystery. The author introduces the current status of the polarimetric observations of GRBs and summarizes what to be solved through GRB polarization. Specifically it is shown that the true explosion energy of GRBs can be probed through the polarimetry with radio telescopes, such as ALMA, VLA, and Nobeyama.
