Afterglow properties not sufficient enough to suggest different kind of Progenitor for GRB More high-z GRBs required to make a more coherent picture.

High z GRBs are rare – Theory. 5 (Loeb & Bromm 2006) – Only 3 GRBs with redshift > 6 GRB (z=8.2) GRB (z=6.7) GRB (z=6.3) 27

Reverse shock emission from GRB and implications for future observations Reverse shock seen in GRB (z=6.26) too RS seen in PdBI data too on day 1.87

mm emission from RS if observed few hours after the burst is bright, redshift-independent as effects of time-dilation compensates for frequency-redshift. (no extinction or scintillation). ALMA will be ideal with 75 uJy/4 min sensitivity. 29 Inoue, Omukai, Ciardi (2007) Reverse shock emission from high-z GRBs and implications for future observations

A seismic shift in radio afterglow studies with EVLA With EVLA and 20-fold increase in sensitivity, better constraints on geometry, energy and density. No assumptions of geometry required at high redshifts. z=2.5, EVLA 3σ, Δt=1 hr z=8.5, EVLA 3σ, Δt=1 hr

Radio emission discovered from the highest known redshift object in the Universe. The best-fit broad-band afterglow model is a quasi-spherical (θ j >12 o ), hyper-energetic (10 52 erg) explosion in a constant, low density (n=1 cm -3 ) medium. The high energy and afterglow properties of GRB are not sufficiently different from GRBs at moderate redshift to suggest a different type of progenitor model (e.g. Pop III). EVLA and ALMA are coming (soon). They will be important tools for both detecting and studying the first generations of stars in the early universe.

GRB at z=6.26 Both high energy bursts. Density environment: Density for GRB ~ 600 cm -3 (Frail et al. 2006) Density for GRB ~ 1 cm -3 Geometry of the outflow: GRB , jet break on day 2.6 (Frail et al. 2006) GRB , no jet break until day 50, Quasi- spherical

Signatures of Pop III progenitor (Heger et al. 2003): Hyper-energetic explosion Low magnetic field Low density HII region – Strong radiation pressure from Pop III star – creates low density (1 cm -3 ) constant density region (10 pc) Low metallicity No published predictions on other afterglow parameters.

GRB was a jet-like outflow and exploded in high density region, so most likely progenitor was a normal Pop II star. WHAT ABOUT PROGENITOR OF GRB ?
