The discovery of polarization in the afterglow of GRB 990510 with the ESO Very Large Telescope
R. A. M. J. Wijers, P. M. Vreeswijk, T. J. Galama +12
Following a BeppoSAX alert (Piro 1999a) and the discovery of the OT at SAAO (Vreeswijk et al. 1999a), we observed GRB 990510 with the FORS instrument on ESO's VLT Unit 1 (`Antu').…
Early detection of the optical counterpart to GRB 980329
J. Gorosabel, A. J. Castro-Tirado, A. Pedrosa +6
We report optical observations of the GRB 980329 error box which represent the second earliest detection of the GRB 980329 optical transient. We determine R = 23.7 0.5 mag on…
HST Observations of the Host Galaxy of GRB970508
A. S. Fruchter, E. Pian, R. Gibbons +13
We report on observations of the field of GRB~970508 made in early August 1998, 454 days after outburst, with the STIS CCD camera onboard the Hubble Space Telescope. The images, ta…
The Host Galaxy of GRB 990123
J. S. Bloom, S. C. Odewahn, S. G. Djorgovski +19
We present deep images of the field of gamma-ray burst (GRB) 990123 obtained in a broad-band UV/visible bandpass with the Hubble Space Telescope, and deep near-infrared images obta…
