Title

Probing Long GRB Progenitor Mass by Gravitational Waves
Coauthors

Abstract

We present a procedure to infer the mass of progenitors and remnants of Gamma Ray Bursts (GRB), starting from the observed energy E_GRB_iso emitted isotropically and considering the associated emission of Gravitatonal Waves (GW) E_GW_iso in the different phases. We make the assumption that the GW energy of the progenitor is emitted partially during a star collapse, and the residual energy is related to the GW energy emitted by the remnant. We take a sample of 237 Long GRB, and use an hybrid Montecarlo procedure to explore, for each of them, a region of possible solutions of E_GW_iso as a function of the masses, radii, eccentricities, rotation frequencies of progenitor and remnant and the fraction of energy k emitted as GW by the GRB. We discriminate between a Neutron Star (NS) or Black Hole (BH) for the remnant and obtain interesting values for the GW emitted by the remnant, for the conversion factor k and for the masses and radii of GRB progenitor stars. We also get remnant populations with mean masses, mean GW frequencies and GRB frequency of GW emission in agreement with the most accepted models.
