This components are illustrated in figure~\ref{fig:timeline}. (a) There is the prompt 100\,GeV peak before and during the first keV-MeV peak, (b) the VHE emission due to inverse Compton scattering lasting for the whole duration of the GRB pulse and (c) the reprocessed inverse Compton emission which may last up to hours after the GRB onset. 50 Based on the model in~\cite{DERISHEV}, three different components of VHE emission exists in an GRB. 51 The corresponding components are illustrated in figure~\ref{fig:timeline}. 52 (a) There is the prompt 100\,GeV peak before and during the first keV-MeV peak, 53 (b) the VHE emission due to Inverse Compton scattering lasting for the whole duration of the GRB pulse and 54 (c) the reprocessed Inverse Compton emission which may last up to hours after the GRB onset. 51 55 (b) and (c) are the components which may be detectable by \ma and other ground based $\gamma$-ray detectors. 52 56 53 57 \par 54 58 55 To achive significant emission due to inverse Comton scattering of the sub-MeV radiation, a minimal magnetic field $B_{min}$ is necessary: 59 To achieve significant emission due to inverse Compton scattering 60 of the sub-MeV radiation, a minimal magnetic field $B_{min}$ is necessary: 56 61 57 62 \begin{equation} … … 62 67 \end{equation} 63 68 64 When the magnetic field is much stronger than $B_{min}$, the delay of reprocessed photons may become observable. For this perpendicular case it can be calculated via the following asymptotic expression: 69 If the magnetic field is much stronger than $B_{min}$, 70 the delay of reprocessed photons may become observable. 71 For this perpendicular case it can be calculated via the following asymptotic expression: 65 72 66 73 \begin{equation} … … 69 76 \end{equation} 70 77 71 For typical values of the absorption threshold $\epsilon_{2ph}=1\,TeV$, duration time of GRB main pulse $t_{GRB}=10^{2}\,s$ and Lorentz factor of the GRB shell $\Gamma=10^{2}$, the duration of delayed VHE emission will be 0.8 hours for the component of magnetic field perpendicular to electron's trajectory $B_{\perp}=0.1\,Gauss$, 3.6 hours for $B_{\perp}=1.0\,Gauss$ and 17.3 hours for $B_{\perp}=10\,Gauss$.\\ 78 For typical values of the absorption threshold $\epsilon_{2ph}=1\,TeV$, 79 the duration time of GRB main pulse $t_{GRB}=10^{2}\,s$ and Lorentz factor of the GRB shell 80 $\Gamma=10^{2}$, the duration of delayed VHE emission will be 0.8 hours for the component of magnetic 81 field perpendicular to electron's trajectory $B_{\perp}=0.1\,Gauss$, 82 3.6 hours for $B_{\perp}=1.0\,Gauss$ and 17.3 hours for $B_{\perp}=10\,Gauss$.\\ 72 83 73 Observation of the delayed VHE emission and the time correlation will give informations about the density of the surrounding interstellar gas, the magnetic field and the Lorentz factor of the GRB shell.\\ 84 The observation of the delayed VHE emission and the time correlation will give informations 85 about the density of the surrounding interstellar gas, the magnetic field and 86 the Lorentz factor of the GRB shell.\\ 74 87 75 It is not easy to fix a reasonable observation time of a GRB based on the described models.
