Theoretical predictions of spectral evolution of short GRBs
arXiv:astro-ph/0703613 · doi:10.1393/ncb/i2007-10285-x
Abstract
We present the properties of spectrum of radiation emitted during gravitational collapse in which electromagnetic field strengths rise over the critical value for $e^+e^-$ pair creation. A drift from soft to a hard energy and a high energy cut off have been found; a comparison with a pure black body spectrum is outlined.
