Abstract

Starting from the Swift sample we defined a complete sub-sample of 58bright long Gamma Ray Bursts (GRB), 52 of them (90%) with a redshift determination, inorder to characterize their properties. This complete sample of bright long- GRBs allowedus to investigate their evolution with cosmic time and properties. We focused inparticular on the GRB luminosity function, on the spectral-energy correlations of theirprompt emission, on the nature of dark bursts and on possible correlations between theprompt and the X-ray afterglow properties.
