The CHilean Automatic Supernova sEarch (CHASE)
G. Pignata, J. Maza, M. Hamuy +16
The CHASE project started in 2007 with the aim of providing young southern supernovae (SNe) to the Carnegie Supernova Project (CSP) and Millennium Center for Supernova Studies (MCS…
GRB 070714B - Discovery of the Highest Spectroscopically Confirmed Short Burst Redshift
J. F. Graham, A. S. Fruchter, A. J. Levan +10
We detect the optical afterglow and host galaxy of GRB 070714B. Our observations of the afterglow show an initial plateau in the lightcurve for approximately the first 5 to 25 minu…
The Rapidly Flaring Afterglow of the Very Bright and Energetic GRB 070125
Adria C. Updike, Joshua B. Haislip, Melissa C. Nysewander +52
We report on multi-wavelength observations, ranging from the X-ray to radio wave bands, of the IPN-localized gamma-ray burst GRB 070125. Spectroscopic observations reveal the prese…
PROMPT Observations of the Early-Time Optical Afterglow of GRB 060607A
M. Nysewander, D. E. Reichart, J. A. Crain +5
PROMPT (Panchromatic Robotic Optical Monitoring and Polarimetry Telescopes) observed the early-time optical afterglow of GRB 060607A and obtained a densely sampled multiwavelength…
GRB051022: physical parameters and extinction of a prototype dark burst
Evert Rol, Alexander van der Horst, Klaas Wiersema +19
GRB051022 was undetected to deep limits in early optical observations, but precise astrometry from radio and X-ray showed that it most likely originated in a galaxy at z~0.8. We re…
Discovery and identification of the very high redshift afterglow of GRB 050904
J. Haislip, M. Nysewander, D. Reichart +39
In 2000, Lamb and Reichart predicted that gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and their afterglows occur in sufficient numbers and at sufficient brightnesses at very high redshifts (z > 5) to…
