We present detailed observations and analysis of GRB 210619B, a very bright and long gamma-ray burst. The energy-resolved prompt emission light curve shows a bright hard emission pulse followed by softer/longer pulses. Spectral analysis suggests a transition from thermal to non-thermal outflow. The late-time data supports a rare hard electron energy index.
We report on detailed multiwavelength observations and analysis of the very bright and long GRB 210619B, detected by the Atmosphere-Space Interactions Monitor installed on the International Space Station and the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) on-board the Fermi mission. Our main goal is to understand the radiation mechanisms and jet composition of GRB 210619B. With a measured redshift of z = 1.937, we find that GRB 210619B falls within the 10 most luminous bursts observed by Fermi so far. The energy-resolved prompt emission light curve of GRB 210619B exhibits an extremely bright hard emission pulse followed by softer/longer emission pulses. The low-energy photon index (alpha(pt)) values obtained using the time-resolved spectral analysis of the burst suggest a transition between the thermal (during harder pulse) to non-thermal (during softer pulse) outflow. We examine the correlation between spectral parameters and find that both peak energy and alpha(pt) exhibit the flux tracking pattern. The late time broad-band photometric data set can be explained within the framework of the external forward shock model with nu(m) < nu(c) < nu(x) (where nu(m), nu(c), and nu(x) are the synchrotron peak, cooling-break, and X-ray frequencies, respectively) spectral regime supporting a rarely observed hard electron energy index (p < 2). We find moderate values of host extinction of E(B - V) = 0.14 +/- 0.01 mag for the small magellanic cloud extinction law. In addition, we also report late-time optical observations with the 10.4m Gran Telescopio de Canarias placing deep upper limits for the host galaxy (z = 1.937), favouring a faint, dwarf host for the burst.
