Abstract

We investigate the scenario of a binary system composed by a neutron star (NS) and a main sequence star which has been stripped to be a naked carbon-oxygen core (CO core). At a given time, the CO core collapses as the supernova (SN) explosion, the hypercritical accretion of the SN ejecta onto the companion NS induces the gamma-ray burst (GRB) and gives birth to a new NS, which powers the afterglow later on. The examples of GRB 180728A is analyzed and demonstrated.
