Gamma-Ray Burst Prompt Correlations

Figure 10

Direct fit of data. This is shown here for two independent data sets for which the luminosities are derived by two independent methods. The first data set consists of 20 bursts with spectroscopically measured redshifts (the open circles). The second one is for 84 bursts (whose binned values are shown as filled diamonds, and the horizontal bars are the bin widths) whose luminosity (and then redshift) were determined with the spectral lag and variability light curve parameters. Both data sets show a highly significant and similar power law relations. (Figure after Schaefer [203]; see Figure therein. @ AAS. Reproduced with permission.)
