Astrophysical implications of external triggers, GRB030329 in particular
External Triggers subgroup

· ·

GRB astrophysics is still very uncertain Associated GW emission: even more uncertain Interpret our observations in the simplest terms
Easy to re-cast in terms of specific models Provides some astrophysical context which is readily interpretable

Probable: The GRB field will need GW observations to fully understand GRB progenitor astrophysics

Short and Long GRBs...

BATSE data

Prejudices: Long GRBs are Collapsars (2 events) Short GRBs are compact inspirals
Nov 10, 2003 Frey 2


Burst categories associated with GRBs
1. Short (~1ms) GW bursts SN-like core bounces, including collapsars (the long-GRB SM)
· Plausible for GRB030329

The astrophysical modeling can serve only as a guide of signal character, not to be taken literally Gaussians, sine-gaussians ZM or DFM or ? Main focus of current analyses in ExtTrig group 2. Must also consider longer duration, sinusoid-like bursts: Interesting core dynamics: bar-instabilities, core fragmentation Large ang. mom., lumpy, accretion torus (van Putten)
The most specific model (and potentially prolific GW producer)

Binary inspirals (the "leading" candidates for short GRBs)

Determining an astrophysically relevant limit

·

·

·

Trigger inputs: event position on sky (assume a point with errors here) event time to <1s distance (z) if known from afterglow measurements Assume a waveform h(t) and polarization A "surrogate" waveform (G or SG, for example), or a modeled waveform (e.g. ZM) Can specify polarization, if predicted. (Assume unpol. for now.) Inject series of such waveforms into pipeline upper limit

Relate observed h(t) to GW Energy...

for an observation (or limit) made at a luminosity distance d from a source.

For example, consider an upper limit corresponding to a gaussian signal (hO, ) with a specified polarization and orientation, then:

a) Assume there exists some mechanism which converts non-spherical mass into GW:

Minimal astrophysical assumptions Isotropic GW emission Short, core-collapse-like bursts

·

Note: For d=100 Mpc, the GRB rate is about 1/yr for a GRB beaming angle of 2°
Nov 10, 2003 Frey 6


b) If we can assume a GRB is associated with a truly SN-like core collapse, then we might estimate GW energy based on SN calculations. E.g., assuming axisymmetry, a max. efficiency is 7в10-4 , then

1.4 MO at this efficiency d=5 Mpc 1.4 MO and d=10Mpc = 0.4 %

Waveforms...
· Surrogates Gaussian:

Sine-gaussian: · For waveforms such as ZM or DFM: · Determine h_peak and f2h(f)2 df for each waveform whose hrss corresponds to the observed limit · Form distribution of derived M_ns, etc For putative long duration waveforms, the limits improve for comparable strain amplitudes... this work in progress.

Idea is to include these calculations as standard part of injection/analysis pipeline; implement as a Matlab script, for example

Astrophysical Models Considered 1. Collapsars ("standard" GRB progenitor model) ­ Collapse of massive (>20M ), rapidly rotating (,non-H) star to a black hole; star shell is blown off ("hypernova"); accretion inflow produces relativistic (200) outflow ("fireball") which gets beamed by interaction with asymmetric shell, producing photons GRB. Time scales for collapse and accretion-jet are both 1 ms. derives from v Nov 10, 2003 Frey 11


Astrophysical Models (contd.) 2. Cannonball GRB model ­ Progenitors are ordinary core-collapse SNe. Infall of stellar shell remnant onto core highly relativistic (103) "cannonball" pair highly beamed GRB 1 s (requires clarification) T and waveforms: use DFM 3. GW emission from the relativistic jet (fireball/cannonball) itself Produces "burst with memory"; G 4 m h= 2 requires further study c d 4. Binary inspirals BH formation; accretion disk GRBs. Leading candidates for short (<2 s) duration GRBs. Not clear that triggers are helpful... is there a study? No current plans to pursue this explicitly.
