TOWARD AN UNDERSTANDING OF GRB PROMPT EMISSION MECHANISM. I. THE ORIGIN OF SPECTRAL LAGS

ABSTRACT Despite decades of investigations, the physical mechanism that powers the bright prompt γ-ray emission from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is still not identified. One important observational clue that still has not been properly interpreted is the existence of time lags of broad light curve pulse...
