| Abstract | We present a set of seventeen Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) with kn own redshifts and X-ray afterglow emission. We apply cosmological corrections in order to compare their flu xes normalized at a redshift of 1. Two classes of GRB can be defi ned using their X-ray afterglow light curves. We show that the br ightest afterglows seem to decay faster than the dimer ones. W also point out evidences for a possible flux limit of the X-ray afterglow depending on the time elapsed since the burst. We t ry to interpret these observations in the framework of the cano nical fireball model of GRB afterglow emission. |
