A 450-day light curve of the radio afterglow of GRB 970508: Fireball calorimetry
D. A. Frail, E. Waxman, S. R. Kulkarni
We report on the results of an extensive monitoring campaign of the radio afterglow of GRB 970508, lasting 450 days after the burst. The spectral and temporal radio behavior indica…
The Radio Afterglow From GRB 980519: A Test of the Jet and Circumstellar Models
D. A. Frail, S. R. Kulkarni, R. Sari +6
We present multi-frequency radio observations from the afterglow of GRB 980519 beginning 7.2 hours after the gamma-ray burst and ending 63 days later. The fast decline in the optic…
Discovery of the Optical Transient of the Gamma Ray Burst 990308
Bradley E. Schaefer, J. A. Snyder, J. Hernandez +53
The optical transient of the faint Gamma Ray Burst 990308 was detected by the QUEST camera on the Venezuelan 1-m Schmidt telescope starting 3.28 hours after the burst. Our photomet…
Parallax of PSR J1744-1134 and the Local Interstellar Medium
M. Toscano, M. C. Britton, R. N. Manchester +4
We present the annual trigonometric parallax of PSR J1744-1134 derived from an analysis of pulse times of arrival. The measured parallax, pi = 2.8+/-0.3 mas ranks among the most pr…
The unusual afterglow of GRB 980326: evidence for the gamma-ray burst/supernova connection
J. S. Bloom, S. R. Kulkarni, S. G. Djorgovski +19
Cosmic gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been firmly established as one of the most powerful phenomena in the Universe, releasing electromagnetic energy approaching the rest-mass energy…
A Massive White Dwarf Companion to the Eccentric Binary Pulsar System PSR B2303+46
M. H. van Kerkwijk, S. R. Kulkarni
Pulsars in close, eccentric binary systems are usually assumed to have another neutron star as a companion. These double neutron star binaries have proven to be the best laboratori…
