Photometry and spectroscopy of GRB 060526: A detailed study of the afterglow and host galaxy of a z=3.2 gamma-ray burst
C. C. Thöne, D. A. Kann, G. Jóhannesson +58
Aims: With this paper we want to investigate the highly variable afterglow light curve and environment of gamma-ray burst (GRB) 060526 at . Methods: We present one of the…
GRB 080319B: A Naked-Eye Stellar Blast from the Distant Universe
J. L. Racusin, S. V. Karpov, M. Sokolowski +81
Long duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) release copious amounts of energy across the entire electromagnetic spectrum, and so provide a window into the process of black hole formation…
The Rapidly Flaring Afterglow of the Very Bright and Energetic GRB 070125
Adria C. Updike, Joshua B. Haislip, Melissa C. Nysewander +52
We report on multi-wavelength observations, ranging from the X-ray to radio wave bands, of the IPN-localized gamma-ray burst GRB 070125. Spectroscopic observations reveal the prese…
GRBs with optical afterglow and known redshift: a statistical study
G. Greco, D. Bad'in, G. Beskin +5
We present a correlation between two intrinsic parameters of GRB optical afterglows. These are the isotropic luminosity at the maximum of the light curve (Lpeak) and the time-integ…
The 2005 outburst of the halo black hole X-ray transient XTE J1118+480
C. Zurita, M. A. P. Torres, D. Steeghs +15
We present optical and infrared monitoring of the 2005 outburst of the halo black hole X-ray transient XTE J1118+480. We measured a total outburst amplitude of ~5.7+-0.1 mag in the…
FAVOR (FAst Variability Optical Registration) -- A Two-telescope Complex for Detection and Investigation of Short Optical Transients
G. Beskin, V. Bad'in, A. Biryukov +25
An astronomical complex intended to detect optical transients (OTs) in a wide field and follow them up with high time resolution investigation is described.
