Swift observations of GRB050904: the most distant cosmic explosion ever observed

G. Cusumano, V. Mangano, G. Chincarini +30

Swift discovered the high redshift (z=6.29) GRB050904 with the Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) and began observing with its narrow field instruments 161 s after the burst onset. This g…

Detection of a huge explosion in the early Universe

G. Cusumano, V. Mangano, G. Chincarini +29

Gamma-ray Bursts (GRBs) are bright flashes of high energy photons that can last from about 10 milliseconds to 10 minutes. Their origin and nature have puzzled the scientific commun…

Swift panchromatic observations of the bright gamma-ray burst GRB050525a

A. J. Blustin, D. Band, S. Barthelmy +12

The bright gamma-ray burst GRB050525a has been detected with the Swift observatory, providing unique multiwavelength coverage from the very earliest phases of the burst. The X-ray…

A short gamma-ray burst apparently asssociated with an elliptical galaxy at redshift z=0.225

N. Gehrels

Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) are bright, brief flashes of high energy photons that have fascinated scientists for 30 years. They come in two classes: long (>2 s), softspectrum bursts an…
