抄録
Using a simple off-axis jet model of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), we can reproduce the observed unusual properties of the prompt emission of GRB 980425, such as the extremely low isotropic equivalent γ-ray energy, the low peak energy, the high fluence ratio, and the long spectral lag when the jet with the standard energy of ∼1051 ergs and the opening half-angle of 10&j0; ≲ Δ&thetas; ≲ 30&j0; is seen from the off-axis viewing angle &thetas;v ∼ Δ&thetas; + 10γ-1, where γ is a Lorentz factor of the jet. For our adopted fiducial parameters, if the jet that caused GRB 980425 is viewed from the on-axis direction, the intrinsic peak energy Ep(1 + z) is ∼2.0–4.0 MeV, which corresponds to those of GRB 990123 and GRB 021004. We also discuss the connection of GRB 980425 in our model with the X-ray flash, and the origin of a class of GRBs with small Eγ.
