The circumstellar environment of rotating Wolf-Rayet Stars and the implications for GRB afterglows

2026-07-072026-07-07http://salesiana.dossiersoluciones.com/handle/123456789/188836If Wolf-Rayet stars are the progenitors of Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), they must rotate rapidly to produce the GRB. This rotation may effect their stellar-wind bubbles and possibly explain why so many GRB afterglows occur in a constant density medium.2 pages, 1 figure.
