초록/해제  
요약Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most energetic explosions in the universe, and they produce jetted broadband synchrotron emission ("afterglow'') from the X-rays to the radio that fades on ~weeks timescales. Typically divided into 2 categories based on their duration, short GRBs are associated with compact object mergers and long GRBs are associated with the death of massive stars. The detection of the radio afterglow of GRBs anchors the synchrotron spectrum and is crucial for breaking degeneracies in afterglow models in order to constrain the circumburst density and microphysics of the GRBs. While radio campaigns following up long GRBs have proven fruitful in the last decade, only a handful of short GRBs have been detected in the radio. In this thesis, I newly publish the radio afterglow of 6 short GRBs, and I present detailed explorations of the multi-frequency radio afterglow of two short GRBs: 210726A and 231117A. I demonstrate that multi-frequency radio campaigns of short GRBs at 10 days are imperative for capturing late rising afterglows. From the compilation of properties of more than 100 short GRBs, I reveal that radio-detected short GRBs are typically more centrally concentrated within their host galaxies than the overall short GRB population, resulting in higher circumburst densities. I also determine that radio detections are beneficial for constraining the jet opening angle of the GRB, especially in the cases of wide ( 10◦) jets.Short GRBs from binary neutron star (NS) mergers may produce a rapidly spinning and highly magnetized NS remnant ("magnetar''). If the magnetar does not promptly collapse to a black hole, the spin-down can deposit up to 1053 erg of energy into the surrounding medium, which will in turn produce synchrotron emission that peaks on ~several year timescales at GHz frequencies. Thus, in this thesis I use radio observations of 27 short GRBs to constrain the presence of this late rising radio emission, and from the non-detections place limits on the maximum mass of a non-rotating NS.A subset of long GRBs encounter significant amounts of dust obscuration along the line of sight, leading to a suppressed optical afterglow that is often faint or undetected ("dark" GRB). Radio detections of these dark GRBs are imperative for breaking modeling degeneracies caused by the lack of optical emission. In this thesis, I present a sample of radio-detected dark GRBs, and uniformly model their afterglows and host galaxies. I use the dark GRB gamma-ray, afterglow, and host galaxy properties to determine what sets these dust obscured events apart from their unobscured counterparts. I additionally use their properties to determine the location and geometry of the obscuring dust along the line of sight.
