On the Dusty Proximate Damped Lyman-α System toward Q2310-3358 at z = 2.40

S. Han, J. -K. Krogager, C. Ledoux +6

Quasar absorption systems not only affect the way quasars are selected, but also serve as key probes of galaxies, providing insight into their chemical evolution and interstellar m…

SVOM GRB 250314A at z 7.3: an exploding star in the era of reionization

B. Cordier, J. Y. Wei, N. R. Tanvir +103

Most long Gamma-ray bursts originate from a rare type of massive stellar explosion. Their afterglows, while rapidly fading, can be initially extremely luminous at optical/near-infr…

A large, chemically enriched, neutral gas reservoir in a galaxy at z = 6.782

A. Saccardi, S. D. Vergani, L. Izzo +23

The chemical characterization of galaxies in the first billion years after the Big Bang is one of the central goals of current astrophysics. Optical/near-infrared spectroscopy of l…

Absence of radio-bright dominance in a near-infrared selected sample of red quasars

S. Vejlgaard, J. P. U. Fynbo, K. E. Heintz +5

(Abridged). We explore the fraction of radio loud quasars in the eHAQ+GAIA23 sample, which contains quasars from the High A(V) Quasar (HAQ) Survey, the Extended High A(V) Quasar (e…

Comparing emission- and absorption-based gas-phase metallicities in GRB host galaxies at using JWST

P. Schady, R. M. Yates, L. Christensen +34

Much of what is known of the chemical composition of the universe is based on emission line spectra from star forming galaxies. Emission-based inferences are, nevertheless, model-d…

The galaxy counterpart and environment of the dusty Damped Lyman-alpha Absorber at z=2.226 towards Q1218+0832

J. P. U. Fynbo, L. B. Christensen, S. J. Geier +8

We report on further observations of the field of the quasar Q1218+0832. Geier et al. 2019 presented the discovery of the quasar resulting from a search for quasars reddened and di…

A search for the afterglows, kilonovae, and host galaxies of two short GRBs: GRB 211106A and GRB 211227A

M. Ferro, R. Brivio, P. D'Avanzo +30

Context: GRB 211106A and GRB 211227A are recent gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with initial X-ray positions suggesting associations with nearby galaxies (z < 0.7). Their prompt emission c…

Reconstructing the extended structure of multiple sources strongly lensed by the ultra-massive elliptical galaxy SDSS J0100+1818

A. Bolamperti, C. Grillo, R. Cañameras +2

We study the total and baryonic mass distributions of the deflector SDSS J0100+1818 through a full strong lensing analysis. The system is composed by an ultra-massive early-type ga…

Dissecting the interstellar medium of a z=6.3 galaxy: X-shooter spectroscopy and HST imaging of the afterglow and environment of the Swift GRB 210905A

A. Saccardi, S. D. Vergani, A. De Cia +35

The study of the properties of galaxies in the first billion years after the Big Bang is one of the major topic of current astrophysics. Optical/near-infrared spectroscopy of the a…

Constraining the multi-scale dark-matter distribution in CASSOWARY 31 with strong gravitational lensing and stellar dynamics

H. Wang, R. Cañameras, G. B. Caminha +6

We study the inner structure of the group-scale lens CASSOWARY 31 (CSWA 31) by adopting both strong lensing and dynamical modeling. CSWA 31 is a peculiar lens system. The brightest…

Synergies of THESEUS with the large facilities of the 2030s and guest observer opportunities

P. Rosati, S. Basa, A. W. Blain +37

The proposed THESEUS mission will vastly expand the capabilities to monitor the high-energy sky, and will exploit large samples of gamma-ray bursts to probe the early Universe back…

Exploration of the high-redshift universe enabled by THESEUS

N. R. Tanvir, E. Le Floc'h, L. Christensen +36

At peak, long-duration gamma-ray bursts are the most luminous sources of electromagnetic radiation known. Since their progenitors are massive stars, they provide a tracer of star f…

The THESEUS space mission: science goals, requirements and mission concept

L. Amati, P. T. O'Brien, D. Götz +31

THESEUS, one of the two space mission concepts being studied by ESA as candidates for next M5 mission within its Comsic Vision programme, aims at fully exploiting Gamma-Ray Bursts…

Steep extinction towards GRB 140506A reconciled from host galaxy observations: Evidence that steep reddening laws are local

K. E. Heintz, J. P. U. Fynbo, P. Jakobsson +14

We present the spectroscopic and photometric late-time follow-up of the host galaxy of the long-duration Swift gamma-ray burst GRB 140506A at z = 0.889. The optical and near-infrar…

The Galaxy Counterparts of the two high-metallicity DLAs at z=2.412 and z=2.583 towards Q0918+1636

J. P. U. Fynbo, S. Geier, L. Christensen +9

The quasar Q0918+1636 (z=3.07) has two intervening high-metallicity Damped Lyman-alpha Absorbers (DLAs) along the line of sight, at redshifts of z=2.412 and 2.583. The z=2.583 DLA…
