Gamma Ray Burst datasets that consist of distance modulus & redshift

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the search for datasets related to Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) that include distance modulus and redshift, similar to the UNION 2.1 sample of supernovae Ia data. The focus is on locating specific datasets suitable for academic research, particularly for a thesis project.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Technical explanation
  • Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant is seeking a dataset for GRBs that includes redshift and distance modulus with uncertainty, similar to the UNION 2.1 sample of supernovae Ia data.
  • Another participant suggests using Google with specific search terms to find relevant datasets.
  • A further reply provides alternative search strategies, including using the "pdf" additive to locate professional papers and articles related to GRBs and supernovae.
  • Additional links to various articles and papers are shared, which may contain useful information or datasets.
  • One participant mentions a specific paper by Wei that helped them find the desired data.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the need for specific datasets related to GRBs, but there is no consensus on the best sources or methods for finding them. The discussion includes varying suggestions and responses to the initial query.

Contextual Notes

Some suggestions depend on the effectiveness of search terms and may lead to varying results. The relevance and comprehensiveness of the datasets mentioned are not uniformly assessed.

Hi guys I am looking for a dataset to use in my thesis. I am working on UNION 2.1 sample of supernovea Ia data. That dataset consist of redshift and distance modulus with uncertainty (sigma) for 590 supernovea.
Do you guys know where can i find similar dataset for GRBs?
 
Space news on Phys.org
try google "gamma ray burst data"
 
I have tried it. Thank you for being rude. I am asking about a quite specific dataset but you do not seem to grasp that.
 
try this in your google search

"supernovae gamma ray burst datasets Union 2 pdf" The pdf additive tends to pull up the professional papers more often.

pulls up numerous articles including this one

"Testing the consistency of Gamma Ray Burst data-set and Supernovae Union2"
http://arxiv.org/abs/1007.4734
Constraining the Anisotropy of the Universe from Supernovae and Gamma-ray Bursts
http://arxiv.org/abs/1405.3074

not sure if those will work for you, but different forms of search parameters with the pdf additive can often work wonders or mislead lol

Forgot to add if you look at the various articles references you should be able to find more
