Curvature Effect and the Spectral Softening Phenomenon Detected in GRB Afterglows
2011
Detection of radiation from a relativistic fireball would be affected by the so-called curvature effect. I illustrate the expected temporal and spectral behaviours of this effect and show that it can well explain the observed spectral softening in the early GRB afterglows.
