Intrinsic spectra and energetics of BeppoSAXGamma–Ray Bursts with known redshifts

We present the main results of a study of spectral and energetics properties of twelve gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with redshift estimates. All GRBs in our sample were detected by BeppoSAX in a broad energy range (2–700 ). From the redshift estimates and the good-quality BeppoSAX time–integrated spectra we deduce the main properties of GRBs in their cosmological rest frames. All spectra in our sample are satisfactorily represented by the Band model, with no significant soft X–ray excesses or spectral absorptions. We find a positive correlation between the estimated total (isotropic) energies in the 1–10 000 energy range (Erad) and redshifts z. Interestingly, more luminous GRBs are characterized also by larger peak…
