Delayed Afterglow Onset Interpreted as Baryon-Poor Viewing Angle
Preprint
- 24 March 2005
Abstract
We have suggested previously that baryons in GRB fireballs infiltrate from the surrounding walls that collimate the fireball. The efficiency $\epsilon_b$ for generating blast energy can then be angle dependent. Delayed onset of afterglow can be interpreted as being due to a baryon-poor viewing angle.
