Discovery of a bright quasar without a massive host galaxy
Pierre Magain, Geraldine Letawe, Frederic Courbin +4
Quasars are thought to be powered by the infall of matter onto a supermassive black hole at the centre of massive galaxies. As the optical luminosity of quasars exceeds that of the…

Multi-Wavelength Studies of the Optically Dark Gamma-Ray Burst 001025A
K. Pedersen, K. Hurley, J. Hjorth +18
We identify the fading X-ray afterglow of GRB 001025A from XMM-Newton observations obtained 1.9-2.3 days, 2 years, and 2.5 years after the burst. The non-detection of an optical co…

Photometric redshift of the GRB 981226 host galaxy
L. Christensen, J. Hjorth, J. Gorosabel
No optical afterglow was found for the dark burst GRB 981226 and hence no absorption redshift has been obtained. We here use ground-based and space imaging observations to analyse…
