On external shock model to explain the high-energy emission: GRB 940217, GRB 941017 and GRB 970217A

We present a leptonic model on the external shock context to describe the high-energy emission of GRB 940217, GRB 941017 and GRB 970217A. We argue that the emission consists of two components, one with a similar duration of the burst, and a second, longer-lasting GeV phase lasting hundred of seconds after the prompt phase. Both components can be described as synchrotron self-Compton emission from a reverse and forward shock respectively. For the reverse shock, we analyze the synchrotron self-Compton in the thick-shell case. The calculated fluxes and break energies are all consistent with the observed values.

Long and short high energy components presented in GRBs

We present a leptonic model on the external shock framework to describe the long- and short- lasting GeV component of some GRBs. This model was already applied successfully to GRB 090926A, and we extend it to describe the high-energy emission of GRB 090902B and GRB 090510. We argue that the high-energy emission consists of two components, one at MeV energies with a duration of a few seconds during the prompt phase, and a second GeV component lasting hundred of seconds after the prompt phase. The short high-energy component can be described as SSC emission from a reverse shock and the longer component arises from SSC emission of the forward shock. The main assumption of our model is that the jet is magnetized and evolves in the thick-shell case. The calculated fluxes and break energies are all consistent with the observed values.
