The dark nature of GRB 051022 and its host galaxy

A. J. Castro-Tirado, M. Bremer, S. McBreen +17

We present multiwavelength (X-ray/optical/near-infrared/millimetre) observations of GRB 051022 between 2.5 hours and ~1.15 yr after the event. It is the most intense gamma-ray burs…

GRB 060206 and the quandary of achromatic breaks in afterglow light curves

P. A. Curran, A. J. van der Horst, R. A. M. J. Wijers +20

Gamma-ray burst afterglow observations in the Swift era have a perceived lack of achromatic jet breaks compared to the BeppoSAX era. We present our multi-wavelength analysis of GRB…

Optical observations of GRB 060124 afterglow: A case for an injection break

Kuntal Misra, D. Bhattacharya, D. K. Sahu +5

We present broad band optical afterglow observations of a long duration GRB 060124 using the 1.04-m Sampurnanand Telescope at ARIES, Nainital and the 2.01-m HCT at IAO, Hanle, incl…

Detection of optical linear polarization in the SN2006aj/XRF060218 non-spherical expansion

J. Gorosabel, V. Larionov, A. J. Castro-Tirado +10

We have performed optical polarimetric observations of the SN2006aj associated to the X-ray flash (XRF) of February 18, 2006, XRF060218 that provide information on its expansion ge…

GRB 051028: an intrinsically faint GRB at high redshift?

A. J. Castro-Tirado, M. Jelinek, S. B. Pandey +16

We present multiwavelength observations of the gamma-ray burst GRB 051028 detected by HETE-2 in order to derive its afterglow emission parameters and to determine the reason for it…

Multi-wavelength afterglow observations of the high redshift GRB 050730

S. B. Pandey, A. J. Castro-Tirado, S. McBreen +22

GRB 050730 is a long duration high-redshift burst (z=3.967) discovered by Swift. The afterglow shows variability and is well monitored over a wide wavelength range. We present comp…

The short-duration GRB 050724 host galaxy in the context of the long-duration GRB hosts

J. Gorosabel, A. J. Castro-Tirado, S. Guziy +11

We report optical and near-infrared broad band observations of the short-duration GRB 050724 host galaxy, used to construct its spectral energy distribution (SED). Unlike the hosts…

The extraordinarily bright optical afterglow of GRB 991208 and its host galaxy

A. J. Castro-Tirado, V. V. Sokolov, J. Gorosabel +50

Observations of the extraordinarily bright optical afterglow (OA) of GRB 991208 started 2.1 d after the event. The flux decay constant of the OA in the R-band is -2.30 +/- 0.07 up…
