Week 13 - Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows [12]
Summary
In this final week, we will learn about the afterglows of gamma-ray bursts
that are in a way the relativistic analogoues of supernova remnants.
This afterglows provide a rich set of information about gamma-ray bursts,
their environment and the line of sight between us and them.
