Gamma-Ray Burst Selected High Redshift Galaxies: Comparison to Field Galaxy Populations to z~3
C. J. Conselice, P. M. Vreeswijk, A. S. Fruchter +6
We study the internal structural properties of 37 long duration gamma-ray burst (GRB) host galaxies imaged with the Hubble Space Telescope. Fitting exponential disk and r^1/4 model…
e-VLBI observations of SN2001em - an off-axis GRB candidate
Z. Paragi, M. A. Garrett, B. Paczynski +5
Studying transient phenomena with the Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) technique faces severe difficulties because the turnaround time of the experiments from the observati…
Late-epoch optical and near-infrared observations of the GRB000911 afterglow and its host galaxy
N. Masetti, E. Palazzi, E. Pian +28
We present the results of an optical and near-infrared (NIR) monitoring campaign of the counterpart of Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) 000911, located at redshift z=1.06, from 5 days to more…
Using the EXIST Active Shields for Earth Occultation Observations of X-ray Sources
Colleen A. Wilson, G. J. Fishman, J. -S. Hong +2
The EXIST active shields, planned for the main detectors of the coded aperture telescope, will have approximately 15 times the area of the BATSE detectors, and they will have a goo…
Massive star-formation rates of gamma-ray burst host galaxies: an unobscured view in X-rays
D. Watson, J. Hjorth, P. Jakobsson +3
The hard X-ray (2-10keV) luminosity of a star-forming galaxy tracks its population of high mass X-ray binaries and is essentially unobscured. It is therefore a practically unbiased…
The line-of-sight towards GRB 030429 at z = 2.66: Probing the matter at stellar, galactic and intergalactic scales
P. Jakobsson, J. Hjorth, J. P. U. Fynbo +21
We report the discovery of the optical afterglow (OA) of the long-duration gamma-ray burst GRB 030429, and present a comprehensive optical/near-infrared dataset used to probe the m…
