Challenging GRB models through the broadband dataset of GRB060908
S. Covino, S. Campana, M. L. Conciatore +37
Context: Multiwavelength observations of gamma-ray burst prompt and afterglow emission are a key tool to disentangle the various possible emission processes and scenarios proposed…
UVES/VLT high resolution absorption spectroscopy of the GRB080330 afterglow: a study of the GRB host galaxy and intervening absorbers
V. D'Elia, F. Fiore, R. Perna +13
We study the Gamma Ray Burst (GRB) environment and intervening absorbers by analyzing the optical absorption features produced by gas surrounding the GRB or along its line of sight…
Probing the complex environments of GRB host galaxies and intervening systems: high resolution spectroscopy of GRB050922C
S. Piranomonte, P. A. Ward, F. Fiore +20
The aim of this paper is to investigate the environment of gamma ray bursts (GRBs) and the interstellar matter of their host galaxies. We use to this purpose high resolution spectr…
Jet breaks at the end of the slow decline phase of Swift GRB lightcurves
M. De Pasquale, P. Evans, S. Oates +9
The Swift mission has discovered an intriguing feature of Gamma-Ray Burst (GRBs) afterglows, a phase of shallow decline of the flux in the X-ray and optical lightcurves. This behav…
The prompt, high resolution spectroscopic view of the "naked-eye" GRB080319B
V. D'Elia, F. Fiore, R. Perna +21
GRB080319B reached 5th optical magnitude during the burst prompt emission. Thanks to the VLT/UVES rapid response mode, we observed its afterglow just 8m:30s after the GRB onset whe…
The afterglow onset for GRB060418 and GRB060607A
S. Covino, S. D. Vergani, D. Malesani +32
Gamma-ray burst are thought to be produced by highly relativistic outflows. Although upper and lower limits for the outflow initial Lorentz factor are available, observationa…
