Gamma-Ray Bursts: A Radio Perspective

Figure 4

(a) X-ray light curve of GRB 070125. Best-fit single power-law models are shown with dashed lines, while the broken power-law models are shown in solid lines. The (joint) is the joint fit to optical and X-ray data and grey solid line (X-ray) is the independent fit. The independent fit shifts the jet break to ~9-10 days, which was found to be day 3 for optical bands. (b) Contribution of IC in the synchrotron model for the X-ray light curve of GRB 070125. The thin line represents the broadband model with the synchrotron component only. The thick line represents the IC light curve. One can see that IC effect can delay the jet breaks in X-ray bands [29].
