GRB 080503: Implications of a Naked Short Gamma-Ray Burst Dominated by Extended Emission

D. A. Perley, B. D. Metzger, J. Granot +22

We report on observations of GRB 080503, a short gamma-ray burst with very bright extended emission (about 30 times the gamma-ray fluence of the initial spike) in conjunction with…

The Exceptionally Luminous Type II-L SN 2008es

A. A. Miller, R. Chornock, D. A. Perley +11

We report on our early photometric and spectroscopic observations of the extremely luminous Type II supernova (SN) 2008es. With an observed peak optical magnitude of m_V = 17.8 and…

GRB 071003: Broadband Follow-up Observations of a Very Bright Gamma-Ray Burst in a Galactic Halo

D. A. Perley, W. Li, R. Chornock +26

The optical afterglow of long-duration GRB 071003 is among the brightest yet to be detected from any GRB, with R ~ 12 mag in KAIT observations starting 42 s after the GRB trigger,…

Gamma-ray Bursts, Classified Physically

Joshua S. Bloom, Nathaniel R. Butler, Daniel A. Perley

From Galactic binary sources, to extragalactic magnetized neutron stars, to long-duration GRBs without associated supernovae, the types of sources we now believe capable of produci…
