Multiwavelength Analysis of the Intriguing GRB 061126: The Reverse Shock Scenario and Magnetization

Multiwavelength Analysis of the Intriguing GRB 061126: The Reverse Shock Scenario and Magnetization

We present a detailed study of the prompt and afterglow emission from Swift GRB 061126 using BAT, XRT,UVOT data and multicolor optical imaging from 10 ground-based telescopes. GRB 061126 was a long burst(T90 ¼ 191 s) with four overlapping peaks in its -ray light curve. The X-ray afterglow, observed...
