The Diversity of Cosmic Explosions: Gamma-Ray Bursts and Type Ib/c Supernovae
Edo Berger
The death of massive stars and the processes which govern the formation of compact remnants are not fully understood. Observationally, this problem may be addressed by studying dif…
How Common are Engines in Ib/c Supernovae?
Edo Berger
The association of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and core-collapse supernovae (SNe) of Type Ib and Ic was motivated by the detection of SN1998bw in the error box of GRB980425 and the now…
The bright optical afterglow of the nearby gamma-ray burst of 29 March 2003
P. A. Price, D. W. Fox, S. R. Kulkarni +11
Many past studies of cosmological gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been limited because of the large distance to typical GRBs, resulting in faint afterglows. There has long been a reco…
A Late-Time Flattening of Afterglow Light Curves
D. A. Frail, B. D. Metzger, E. Berger +2
We present a sample of radio afterglow light curves with measured decay slopes which show evidence for a flattening at late times compared to optical and X-ray decay indices. The s…
Millimeter Observations of GRB 030329: Continued Evidence for a Two-Component Jet
K. Sheth, D. A. Frail, S. White +5
We present the results of a dedicated campaign on the afterglow of GRB 030329 with the millimeter interferometers of the Owens Valley Radio Observatory (OVRO), the Berkeley-Illinoi…
Radio Afterglows of Gamma-Ray Bursts: Unique Clues to the Energetics and Environments
E. Berger
Radio observations of gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows provide both complementary and unique diagnostics of the afterglow physics and environment of the burst. Here we concentrate…
