Swift observations of the prompt X-ray emission and afterglow from GRB050126 and GRB050219A
M. R. Goad
We report on the temporal and spectral characteristics of the early X-ray emission from the Gamma Ray Bursts GRB050126 and GRB050219A as observed by Swift. The X-ray light-curves o…
Evidence for intrinsic absorption in the Swift X-ray afterglows
S. Campana, P. Romano, S. Covino +29
Gamma-ray burst (GRB) progenitors are observationally linked to the death of massive stars. X-ray studies of the GRB afterglows can deepen our knowledge of the ionization status an…
A refined position catalog of the Swift XRT afterglows
A. Moretti, M. Perri, M. Capalbi +22
We present a catalogue of refined positions of 68 gamma ray burst (GRB) afterglows observed by the Swift X-ray Telescope (XRT) from the launch up to 2005 Oct 16. This is a result o…
Swift observations of the X-ray bright GRB 050315
S. Vaughan, M. R. Goad, A. P. Beardmore +30
This paper discusses Swift observations of the gamma-ray burst GRB 050315 (z=1.949) from 80 s to 10 days after the onset of the burst. The X-ray light curve displayed a steep early…
GRB 050117: Simultaneous Gamma-ray and X-ray Observations with the Swift Satellite
J. E. Hill, D. C. Morris, T. Sakamoto +32
The Swift Gamma-Ray Burst Explorer performed its first autonomous, X-ray follow-up to a newly detected GRB on 2005 January 17, within 193 seconds of the burst trigger by the Swift…
Bright X-ray Flares in Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows
D. N. Burrows, P. Romano, A. Falcone +31
Gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows have provided important clues to the nature of these massive explosive events, providing direct information on the nearby environment and indirect…
