The X-shooter GRB afterglow legacy sample (XS-GRB)

J. Selsing, D. Malesani, P. Goldoni +53

In this work we present spectra of all -ray burst (GRB) afterglows that have been promptly observed with the X-shooter spectrograph until 31-03-2017. In total, we obtained spect…

Evidence for the magnetar nature of 1E 161348-5055 in RCW 103

A. D'Aì, P. A. Evans, D. N. Burrows +25

We report on the detection of a bright, short, structured X-ray burst coming from the supernova remnant RCW 103 on 2016 June 22 caught by the Swift/BAT monitor, and on the follow-u…

Herschel observations of gamma-ray burst host galaxies: implications for the topology of the dusty interstellar medium

P. Schady, S. Savaglio, T. Mueller +11

Long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are indisputably related to star formation, and their vast luminosity in gamma rays pin-points regions of star formation independent of galaxy…

A deep search for the host galaxies of GRBs with no detected optical afterglow

A. Rossi, S. Klose, P. Ferrero +28

Gamma-Ray Bursts can provide information about star formation at high redshifts. Even in the absence of a optical/near-infrared/radio afterglow, the high detection rate of X-ray af…

A photometric redshift of for the \agile GRB 080514B

A. Rossi, A. de Ugarte Postigo, P. Ferrero +26

Aims: The AGILE gamma-ray burst GRB 080514B is the first burst with detected emission above 30 MeV and an optical afterglow. However, no spectroscopic redshift for this burst is kn…

Swift-UVOT detection of GRB 050318

M. Still, P. W. A. Roming, K. O. Mason +27

We present observations of GRB 050318 by the Ultra-Violet and Optical Telescope (UVOT) on-board the Swift observatory. The data are the first detections of a Gamma Ray Burst (GRB)…
