AbstractIn this analysis we attempt to constrain various facets of the theoretical framework that gives rise to Type I (compact merger) gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) utilizing Monte Carlo simulations. We are interested in testing, specifically, the luminosity function, rate, merger timescale distribution, and host galaxy type and offset of Type I GRBs with one comprehensive Monte Carlo code. The results from these simulations can then be compared to current observations, with consistency being tested from various constraints including the 1D luminosity and redshift distribution, 2D L-z distribution, Swift and BATSE logN(> P) - log P distribution, and host galaxy type and offset data. © 2009 American Institute of Physics.
