Flares in Gamma Ray Bursts (II)
G. Chincarini, R. Margutti, J. Mao +4
We illustrate some of the preliminary results obtained with a new sample of flares and a new analysis. In these proceedings we deal mainly with the analysis related to the flare en…
The metamorphosis of Supernova SN2008D/XRF080109: a link between Supernovae and GRBs/Hypernovae
Paolo A. Mazzali, Stefano Valenti, Massimo Della Valle +38
The only supernovae (SNe) to have shown early gamma-ray or X-ray emission thus far are overenergetic, broad-lined Type Ic SNe (Hypernovae - HNe). Recently, SN 2008D shows several n…
The short GRB070707 afterglow and its very faint host galaxy
S. Piranomonte, P. D'Avanzo, S. Covino +18
We present the results from an ESO/VLT campaign aimed at studying the afterglow properties of the short/hard gamma ray burst GRB 070707. Observations were carried out at ten differ…
GRB 070311: a direct link between the prompt emission and the afterglow
C. Guidorzi, S. D. Vergani, S. Sazonov +30
We present prompt gamma-ray, early NIR/optical, late optical and X-ray observations of the peculiar GRB 070311 discovered by INTEGRAL, in order to gain clues on the mechanisms resp…
Multicolor observations of the afterglow of the short/hard GRB 050724
D. Malesani, S. Covino, P. D'Avanzo +19
New information on short/hard gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is being gathered thanks to the discovery of their optical and X-ray afterglows. However, some key aspects are still poorly un…
Discovery of the optical afterglow of XRF 040812: VLT and Chandra observations
P. D'Avanzo, D. Malesani, S. Campana +4
We present Chandra and VLT observations of the X-Ray Flash XRF 040812. The X-ray analysis reveals with high precision the position of a hard, fading source. A careful analysis of o…
