From Internal Collision to Photon Escape: First-Principles Modeling of Radiation-Mediated Shocks in Gamma-Ray Burst Photospheres
Self-consistent simulations reveal that reverse shocks in GRB photospheres stay radiation-mediated down to optical depths of a few tenths, with photons decoupling over a broad radial range and forming a quasi-thermal post-cursor.
