We studied how GRB parameters (T90 duration, fluence, peak flux) that were observed by only one satellite differ from those observed by both. In the latter case, it was possible to directly compare the values of the parameters that both satellites measured. The GRBs measured by both satellites were identified using the k-nearest neighbours algorithm in Euclidean distance. In the parameter space we determined the direction in which the jointly detected GRBs differ most from those detected by only one of the instruments using linear discriminant analyses. To get the strength of the relationship between the parameters obtained from the GBM and BAT, a canonical correlation was performed. The GBM and BAT T90 distributions were fitted with a linear combination of lognormal functions. The optimal number of such functions required for fit is two for GBM and three for BAT. Contrary to the widely accepted view, we found that the number of lognormal functions required for fitting the observed distribution of GRB durations does not allow us to deduce the number of central engine types responsible for GRBs.}, keywords = {Telescopes; gamma-ray burst: general; Instrumentation: detectors; Space vehicles: instruments; fmethods: statistical}, year = {2024}, eissn = {1365-2966}, pages = {8931-8940}, orcid-numbers = {Pintér, Sándor/0000-0002-5755-7956; Bagoly, Zsolt/0000-0002-2679-7594; Tóth, László Viktor/0000-0002-5310-4212; Rácz, István/0000-0002-4595-6933; Horváth, István/0000-0002-1343-1761} } @article{MTMT:34417072, title = {Mapping the Universe with gamma-ray bursts}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34417072}, author = {Horváth, István and Bagoly, Zsolt and Balázs, Lajos and Hakkila, Jon and Horváth, Zsuzsa and Joo, Andras Peter and Pintér, Sándor and Tóth, László Viktor and Veres, Peter and Rácz, István}, doi = {10.1093/mnras/stad3669}, journal-iso = {MON NOT R ASTRON SOC}, journal = {MONTHLY NOTICES OF THE ROYAL ASTRONOMICAL SOCIETY}, volume = {527}, unique-id = {34417072}, issn = {0035-8711}, abstract = {We explore large-scale cosmic structure using the spatial distribution of 542 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) having accurately-measured positions and spectroscopic redshifts. Prominent cosmological clusters are identified in both the northern and southern galactic hemispheres (avoiding extinction effects in the plane of the Milky Way) using the Bootstrap Point-Radius method. The Northern Galactic hemisphere contains a significant group of four GRBs in the redshift range 0.59 ≤ z ≤ 0.62 (with a Bootstrap probability of p = 0.012) along with the previously-identified Hercules–Corona Borealis Great Wall (in the revised redshift range 0.9 ≤ z ≤ 2.1; p = 0.017). The Southern Galactic hemisphere contains the previously-identified Giant GRB Ring (p = 0.022) along with another possible cluster of 7 − 9 GRBs at 1.17 ≤ z ≤ 1.444 (p = 0.031). Additionally, both the Hercules–Corona Borealis Great Wall and the Giant GRB Ring have become more prominent as the GRB sample size has grown. The approach used here underscores the potential value of GRB clustering as a probe of large-scale cosmic structure, complementary to galaxy and quasar clustering.

Due to their huge energy output in a short time they can be observed at very large cosmological distances. Actually, they sample the whole observable Universe. As a consequence of their large distances, their observed duration, fluence and peak flux depend on the redshift. In the reality, however, this dependence can be observed only in the case if the intrinsic variance of these quantities in comoving frame do not exceed significantly that coming from different redhifts of the GRBs. Nevertheless, it is an important question whether the redshift dependence of the observed quantities could be extracted from the observational data. Using a training set consisting of GRBs having measured physical parameters and redshifts we are looking for the effect of the redshift on the observed data, using techniques available in multivariate data analysis. Creating a 3D parameter space from duration, fluence and peak flux, we define partitions in the distribution of data points and compare the redshift distributions within these partitions. Partitioning will be made by some hierarchical clustering algorithm and cutting the obtained agglomeration tree at different places to get partitions of different numbers. The distributions of redshifts within the partitions, obtained in this way, will be compared to see if there is any difference in redshift distribution between partitions at all.}, keywords = {cosmology; statistical; gamma-ray burts}, year = {2023}, eissn = {1336-0337}, pages = {115-126}, orcid-numbers = {Rácz, István/0000-0002-4595-6933; Horváth, István/0000-0002-1343-1761} } @CONFERENCE{MTMT:33087071, title = {Stellar FIP effect from the empirical side}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/33087071}, author = {Seli, Bálint Attila and Van Driel Gesztelyi, Lídia and Baker, Deborah and Laming, J.

We have detected a significant active galactic nucleus (AGN) contribution to the mid-infrared luminosity for 71% of DOGs. Our DOGs contain several types of AGNs; the majority of AGN emission originates from Type 2 AGNs. Our DOG sample shows very high values of stellar mass [log (M-*/M-circle dot) = 11.49 +/- 1.61] compared with other samples of DOGs selected at infrared wavelengths. Our study is promising to identify a new type of DOGs called "overweight" DOGs (ODOGs). ODOGs may indicate the end of the DOG phase, and then they become visible quasars. Principal component (PC) analysis is applied to reduce the number of dimensions of our sample, removing the dependency on the observed variables. There are two significant PCs describing 72.7% of the total variance. The first PC strongly correlates with redshift, dust luminosity, dust mass, and stellar mass, while far-ultraviolet (FUV) attenuation strongly correlates with the second PC, which is orthogonal to the first one.

We analyzed the possible correlation between the GRB redshift and sky position.

The GRBs’ cumulative monthly distribution was used to show that it is impossible to synthesize the Sky Exposure Function, even from the perfect observational logs. We estimated the Sky Exposure Function using the Gaussian kernel, and with the radial distribution, it was used for the estimation of the Spatial Two-Point Correlation Function.

The different elemental abundances of the photosphere and the corona are striking features of not only the Sun, but of other stars as well. This phenomenon is known as the first ionisation potential (FIP) effect, and its strength can be characterized by the FIP bias, the logarithmic abundance difference between low- and high-FIP elements in the corona, compared to the photosphere. The FIP bias was shown to depend on the surface temperature of the star. Aims: We aim to extend the Teff−FIP bias relationship to a larger stellar sample and analyse the effect of other astrophysical parameters on the relation (e.g. surface gravity, age, activity indicators). Methods: We compiled FIP bias and other parameters for 59 stars for which coronal composition is available, now including evolved stars. Using principal component analysis and linear discriminant analysis, we searched for correlations with other astrophysical parameters within the sample that may influence the stellar FIP bias. Results: Adding stars to the Teff−FIP bias diagram unveiled new features in its structure. In addition to the previously known relationship, there appears to be a second branch: a parallel sequence about 0.5 dex above it. While the Teff remains the main determinant of the FIP bias, other parameters such as stellar activity indicators also have influence. We find three clusters in the FIP bias determinant parameter space. One distinct group is formed by the evolved stars. Two groups contain main sequence stars in continuation separated roughly by the sign change of the FIP-bias value. Conclusions: The new branch of the Teff−FIP bias diagram contains stars with higher activity level, in terms of X-ray flux and rotational velocity. The Rossby number also seems to be important, indicating possible dependence on the type of dynamo operating in these stars influencing their FIP bias. The two main-sequence clusters run from the earliest spectral types of A-F with shallow convection zones through G-K-early-M stars with gradually deeper convection zones, and they end with the fully convective M dwarf stars, depicting the change of the dynamo type with the internal differences of the main sequence stars in connection with the FIP-bias values.}, year = {2022}, eissn = {1432-0746}, orcid-numbers = {Seli, Bálint Attila/0000-0002-3658-2175; Kővári, Zsolt/0000-0001-5160-307X} } @article{MTMT:32152422, title = {Exploration of the high-redshift universe enabled by THESEUS}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/32152422}, author = {Tanvir, N.
