Arithmetic local constants for abelian varieties with extra endomorphisms

Sunil Chetty

This work generalizes the theory of arithmetic local constants, introduced by Mazur and Rubin, to better address abelian varieties with a larger endomorphism ring than …

The Optical Luminosity Function of Gamma-ray Bursts deduced from ROTSE-III Observations

X. H. Cui, X. F. Wu, J. J. Wei +16

We present the optical luminosity function (LF) of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) estimated from a uniform sample of 58 GRBs from observations with the Robotic Optical Transient Search Ex…

GRB 090902B: afterglow observations and implications

S. B. Pandey, C. A. Swenson, D. A. Perley +30

The optical-infrared afterglow of the LAT-detected long duration burst, GRB 090902B, has been observed by several instruments. The earliest detection by ROTSE-IIIa occurred 80 minu…

Looking Into the Fireball: ROTSE-III and Swift Observations of Early GRB Afterglows

E. S. Rykoff, F. Aharonian, C. W. Akerlof +21

We report on a complete set of early optical afterglows of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) obtained with the ROTSE-III telescope network from March 2005 through June 2007. This set is comp…

GRB 071003: Broadband Follow-up Observations of a Very Bright Gamma-Ray Burst in a Galactic Halo

D. A. Perley, W. Li, R. Chornock +26

The optical afterglow of long-duration GRB 071003 is among the brightest yet to be detected from any GRB, with R ~ 12 mag in KAIT observations starting 42 s after the GRB trigger,…
