Spectral Energy Distributions and Light Curves of GRB 990123 and its Afterglow
T. J. Galama, M. S. Briggs, R. A. M. J. Wijers +38
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are thought to result from the interaction of an extremely relativistic outflow interacting with a small amount of material surrounding the site of the expl…
SCUBA sub-millimeter observations of gamma-ray bursters. I. GRB 970508, 971214, 980326, 980329, 980519, 980703
I. A. Smith, R. P. J. Tilanus, J. van Paradijs +7
We discuss the first results of our ongoing program of Target of Opportunity observations of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) using the SCUBA instrument on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope…
Extremely Red Galaxies: Old or Dusty ?
Andrea Cimatti, Paola Andreani, Huub Röttgering +1
The nature of the extremely red galaxies is poorly known, the critical issue being whether they are old ellipticals at or distant star-forming galaxies strongly reddened by…
Submillimetre maps of the edge-on galaxy NGC 891
F. P. Israel, P. P. van der Werf, R. P. J. Tilanus
Broadband continuum images of the edge-on galaxy NGC 891 at 850 and 450 microns are presented. These images are qualitatively very similar to the 1300 micron and CO images obtained…
CO J=2->1 observations of the nearby galaxies Dwingeloo 1 and Dwingeloo 2
R. P. J. Tilanus, W. B. Burton
We present an exploratory survey of the central regions of the nearby spiral galaxies Dwingeloo 1 and Dwingeloo 2 made in the CO J=2->1 line at 230GHz using the James Clerk Maxwell…
