GRB Emission with Anisotropic Electron Distribution
[article]
2022
The typical spectrum of the prompt emission of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) indicates that the electron cooling is suppressed in spite of the strong magnetic field in the standard synchrotron model. Recent Particle-in-Cell simulations show that the particle acceleration by magnetic reconnection in a magnetically dominated plasma can lead to small pitch angles especially in low-energy region. Such a small pitch angle prevents electrons from cooling via synchrotron radiation. In this paper, taking
