No supernovae associated with two long-duration gamma ray bursts

Johan P. U. Fynbo, Darach Watson, Christina C. Thoene +28

It is now accepted that long duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are produced during the collapse of a massive star. The standard "collapsar" model predicts that a broad-lined and lum…

Long gamma-ray bursts and core-collapse supernovae have different environments

A. S. Fruchter, A. J. Levan, L. Strolger +30

When massive stars exhaust their fuel they collapse and often produce the extraordinarily bright explosions known as core-collapse supernovae. On occasion, this stellar collapse al…

Evidence for a Supernova Associated with the X-ray Flash 020903

D. Bersier, A. S. Fruchter, L. -G. Strolger +24

We present ground-based and Hubble Space Telescope optical observations of the X-ray flash (XRF) 020903, covering 300 days. The afterglow showed a very rapid rise in the first day,…

GRB 020410: A Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglow Discovered by its Supernova Light

A. Levan, P. Nugent, A. Fruchter +19

We present the discovery and monitoring of the optical transient (OT) associated with GRB 020410. The fading OT was found by Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations taken 28 and…

Variable polarization in the optical afterglow of GRB 021004

E. Rol, R. A. M. J. Wijers, J. P. U. Fynbo +19

We present polarimetric observations of the afterglow of gamma-ray burst (GRB) 021004, obtained with the Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) and the Very Large Telescope (VLT) between 8…

The optical/near-IR spectral energy distribution of the GRB 000210 host galaxy

J. Gorosabel, L. Christensen, J. Hjorth +25

We report on UBVRIZJsHKs-band photometry of the dark GRB 000210 host galaxy. Fitting a grid of spectral templates to its Spectral Energy Distribution (SED), we derived a photometri…
