A photometric redshift of for the \agile GRB 080514B

A. Rossi, A. de Ugarte Postigo, P. Ferrero +26

Aims: The AGILE gamma-ray burst GRB 080514B is the first burst with detected emission above 30 MeV and an optical afterglow. However, no spectroscopic redshift for this burst is kn…

Afterglows of Gamma-Ray Bursts: Short vs. Long GRBs

D. A. Kann, S. Klose

We compiled a large sample of Swift-era photometric data on long (Type II) and short (Type I) GRB afterglows. We compare the luminosity and energetics of the different samples to e…

GRB 060605: multi-wavelength analysis of the first GRB observed using integral field spectroscopy

Patrizia Ferrero, Sylvio Klose, David Alexander Kann +16

The long and relatively faint gamma-ray burst GRB 060605 detected by \emph{Swift}/BAT lasted about 20 sec. Its afterglow could be observed with \emph{Swift}/XRT for nearly 1 day, w…

The Spectral Lag of GRB060505: A Likely Member of the Long Duration Class

S. McBreen, S. Foley, D. Watson +7

Two long gamma-ray bursts, GRB 060505 and GRB 060614, occurred in nearby galaxies at redshifts of 0.089 and 0.125 respectively. Due to their proximity and durations, deep follow-up…

Observations of the Naked-Eye GRB 080319B: Implications of Nature's Brightest Explosion

J. S. Bloom, D. A. Perley, W. Li +18

The first gamma-ray burst (GRB) confirmed to be bright enough to be seen with the naked eye, GRB 080319B at redshift z = 0.937, allowed for exquisite follow-up observations across…

Oscillations in Procyon A: First results from a multi-site campaign

S. Hekker, T. Arentoft, H. Kjeldsen +45

Procyon A is a bright F5IV star in a binary system. Although the distance, mass and angular diameter of this star are all known with high precision, the exact evolutionary state is…
