1. Photospheric emission in gamma ray bursts : Analysis and interpretation of observations made by the Fermi gamma ray space telescope
Abstract : The large flashes of radiation that are observed in GRBs are generally believed to arise in a relativistic jetted outflow. This thesis addresses the question of how and where in the jet this radiation is produced. READ MORE

2. Multi-messenger emission from gamma-ray bursts
Abstract : Multi-messenger astronomy is a very hot topic in the astrophysical community. A messenger is something that carries information. Different astrophysical messenger types are photons, cosmic rays, neutrinos, and gravitational waves. They all carry unique and complementary information to one another. READ MORE

3. Microphysical Conditioning of Gamma-Ray Burst Shocks
Abstract : Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) are believed to be connected with either collapse of massive stars or – in some cases – coalescing neutron stars, both of which cause extreme relativistic explosions observable from the entire Universe. GRBs produce rapid flashes of high energy radiation, extending up to 2MeV in photon energies: as much energy per photon as the rest mass of 4 electrons. READ MORE

4. Statistical Investigations ofthe Emission Processes in Gamma-ray Bursts
Abstract : Physical emission mechanisms responsible for gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) remain elusive to this day, 50 years after their discovery. Although there are well studied physical models, their power to explain the observed data is a matter of debate. READ MORE

5. Cosmic rays and shock physics in gamma-ray bursts
Abstract : Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most luminous events in the known universe. Due to their tremendous energy output, they serve as laboratories of physics far beyond anything that we can hope to achieve in terrestrial experiments. READ MORE
