GLAST prospects for Swift-era afterglows.

GOU L.-J. and MESZAROS P.

Abstract (from CDS):

We calculate the GeV spectra of gamma-ray burst afterglows produced by inverse Compton scattering of these objects' sub-MeV emission. We improve on earlier treatments by using refined afterglow parameters and new model developments motivated by recent Swift observations. We present time-dependent GeV spectra for standard, constant-parameter models, as well as for models with energy injection and with time-varying parameters, for a range of burst parameters. We evaluate the limiting redshift to which such afterglows can be detected by the GLAST Large Area Telescope, as well as by AGILE.
