The 2175 Å extinction feature in the optical afterglow spectrum of GRB 180325A at z=2.25
T. Zafar, K. E. Heintz, J. P. U. Fynbo +26
The UV extinction feature at 2175 Å is ubiquitously observed in the Galaxy but is rarely detected at high redshifts. Here we report the spectroscopic detection of the 2175 Å bump o…
X-shooter and ALMA spectroscopy of GRB 161023A - A study of metals and molecules in the line of sight towards a luminous GRB
A. de Ugarte Postigo, C. C. Thöne, J. Bolmer +45
Long gamma-ray bursts are produced during the dramatic deaths of massive stars with very short lifetimes, meaning that they explode close to the birth place of their progenitors. D…
The fraction of ionizing radiation from massive stars that escapes to the intergalactic medium
N. R. Tanvir, J. P. U. Fynbo, A. de Ugarte Postigo +38
The part played by stars in the ionization of the intergalactic medium remains an open question. A key issue is the proportion of the stellar ionizing radiation that escapes the ga…
VLT/X-shooter GRBs: Individual extinction curves of star-forming regions
T. Zafar, D. Watson, P. Møller +14
The extinction profiles in Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) afterglow spectral energy distributions (SEDs) are usually described by the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC)-type extinction curve. In…
Beryllium detection in the very fast nova ASASSN-16kt (V407 Lupi)
L. Izzo, P. Molaro, P. Bonifacio +8
We present high-resolution spectroscopic observations of the fast nova ASASSN-16kt (V407 Lup). A close inspection of spectra obtained at early stages has revealed the presence of l…
