The complex light-curve of the afterglow of GRB071010A

S. Covino, P. D'Avanzo, A. Klotz +51

We present and discuss the results of an extensive observational campaign devoted to GRB071010A, a long-duration gamma-ray burst detected by the Swift satellite. This event was fol…

The Afterglows of Swift-era Gamma-Ray Bursts II.: Type I GRB versus Type II GRB Optical Afterglows

D. A. Kann, S. Klose, B. Zhang +21

We use a large sample of GRB afterglow and prompt-emission data (adding further GRB afterglow observations in this work) to compare the optical afterglows (or the lack thereof) of…

The Afterglows of Swift-era Gamma-Ray Bursts. I. Comparing pre-Swift and Swift era Long/Soft (Type II) GRB Optical Afterglows

D. A. Kann, S. Klose, B. Zhang +73

We have gathered optical photometry data from the literature on a large sample of Swift-era gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows including GRBs up to September 2009, for a total of 76…

The host galaxy of GRB031203: a new spectroscopic study

R. Margutti, G. Chincarini, S. Covino +11

The host galaxy of the long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB) 031203 (HG031203) offers a precious opportunity to study in detail the environment of a nearby GRB. The aim is to better…

A study of the prompt and afterglow emission of the Short GRB 061201

G. Stratta, P. D'Avanzo, S. Piranomonte +30

Our knowledge of the intrinsic properties of short duration Gamma-Ray Bursts has relied, so far, only upon a few cases for which the estimate of the distance and an extended, multi…

REM observations of GRB 060418 and GRB 060607A: the onset of the afterglow and the initial fireball Lorentz factor determination

E. Molinari, S. D. Vergani, D. Malesani +32

Gamma-ray burst (GRB) emission is believed to originate in highly relativistic fireballs. Currently, only lower limits were securely set to the initial fireball Lorentz factor Gamm…
