A Mature Dusty Star-forming Galaxy Hosting GRB080607 at z=3.036
Hsiao-Wen Chen, Daniel A. Perley, Christine D. Wilson +7
We report the discovery of the host galaxy of dark burst GRB080607 at z_GRB=3.036. GRB080607 is a unique case of a highly extinguished (A_V~3 mag) afterglow that was yet sufficient…
Monster in the Dark: The Ultraluminous GRB 080607 and its Dusty Environment
Daniel A. Perley, A. N. Morgan, A. Updike +17
We present early-time optical through infrared photometry of the bright gamma-ray burst GRB 080607, starting only 6 s following the initial trigger in the rest frame. Complemented…
Progenitor Diagnostics for Stripped Core-Collapse Supernovae: Measured Metallicities at Explosion Sites
Maryam Modjaz, L. Kewley, J. S. Bloom +3
Metallicity is expected to influence not only the lives of massive stars but also the outcome of their deaths as supernovae (SNe) and as gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). However, there are…
Discovery of SN 2009nz Associated with GRB 091127
B. E. Cobb, J. S. Bloom, D. A. Perley +3
We report SMARTS, Gemini and Swift-UVOT observations of the optical transient (OT) associated with gamma-ray burst (GRB) 091127, at redshift 0.49, taken between 0.9 hr and 102 days…
Afterglow Observations of Fermi-LAT Gamma-Ray Bursts and the Emerging Class of Hyper-Energetic Events
S. B. Cenko, D. A. Frail, F. A. Harrison +21
We present broadband (radio, optical, and X-ray) light curves and spectra of the afterglows of four long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs 090323, 090328, 090902B, and 090926A) detec…
GRB 090902B: afterglow observations and implications
S. B. Pandey, C. A. Swenson, D. A. Perley +30
The optical-infrared afterglow of the LAT-detected long duration burst, GRB 090902B, has been observed by several instruments. The earliest detection by ROTSE-IIIa occurred 80 minu…
