Description
The composition of the jet and the nature of the prompt non-thermal emission are open questions in gamma-ray bursts astrophysics. In this work, we study the degree of magnetisation of the jet and the prompt emission for 14 Fermi LAT GRBs with sub-dominant black-body components. We first carry out the joint spectral analysis of these GRBs with the GBM and LAT data using multi-component spectral models. We then use the results of the spectral analysis to study the characteristics of the jet and the prompt non-thermal emission in various scenarios.
