Gamma-ray Bursts and Kilonovae from Gravitational Wave Events

Alberto Colombo, Marcello Giroletti, Susanna D. Vergani +1

The detection of gravitational waves (GWs) from binary black holes in 2015 and the joint GW-electromagnetic (EM) observation of the binary neutron star merger GW170817 set a milest…

Failed jet breakout in the metal-poor broad-lined type Ic supernova 2026gzf

Antonio Martin-Carrillo, Christina C. Thöne, James K. Leung +103

A long-standing question in the death of massive stars is the role of relativistic jets. While many gamma-ray bursts and some fast X-ray transients seem to be associated with broad…

XRF 241001A/SN 2024aiiq: A faint soft X-ray transient detected by SVOM with a broad-line type Ic supernova revealed by JWST

B. Schneider, M. Brunet, B. P. Gompertz +61

X-ray flashes (XRFs) are a type of gamma-ray burst (GRB) with prompt emission predominantly below 30 keV and have been poorly detected by previous missions. The advent of the SVOM…

Gamma Ray Bursts as Probes of the Distant Universe

P. Petitjean, S. D. Vergani

We review recent results on the high-redshift universe and the cosmic evolution obtained using Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) as tracers of high-redshift galaxies. Most of the results com…

Achromatic Breaks for Swift GRBs: Any Evidence?

S. Covino, D. Malesani, G. Tagliaferri +5

The availability of multi-wavelength high-quality data of gamma-ray burst afterglows in the Swift era, contrary to the expectations, did not allow us to fully confirm yet one of th…
