Spectroscopy of GRB 051111 at z=1.54948: Kinematics and Elemental Abundances of the GRB Environment and Host Galaxy
B. E. Penprase, E. Berger, D. B. Fox +8
We present a high-resolution, high signal-to-noise optical spectrum of the afterglow of GRB 051111 obtained with the HIRES spectrograph on the Keck I 10-m telescope. The spectrum e…
The afterglow of GRB050709 and the nature of the short-hard gamma-ray bursts
D. B. Fox, D. A. Frail, P. A. Price +33
The final chapter in the long-standing mystery of the gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) centres on the origin of the short-hard class, suspected on theoretical grounds to result from the coa…
Discovery and identification of the very high redshift afterglow of GRB 050904
J. Haislip, M. Nysewander, D. Reichart +39
In 2000, Lamb and Reichart predicted that gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and their afterglows occur in sufficient numbers and at sufficient brightnesses at very high redshifts (z > 5) to…
The afterglow and elliptical host galaxy of the short gamma-ray burst GRB 050724
E. Berger, P. A. Price, S. B. Cenko +21
Despite a rich phenomenology, gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are divided into two classes based on their duration and spectral hardness -- the long-soft and the short-hard bursts. The dis…
