Study of the Large-Scale Distribution of Gamma-Ray Burst Sources by the Method of Pairwise Distances

  • Published:
Astrophysics Aims and scope

The method of pairwise distances developed earlier by the authors is used to study the spatial distribution of 352 sources of gamma-ray bursts with measured redshifts. Three cosmological models are considered: a model with a Euclidean metric, the “tired light” model, and the standard ΛCDM model. It is found that this set has fractal features and may be multifractal. The fractal dimensionalities are estimated.
