SN2012ab: A Peculiar Type IIn Supernova with Aspherical Circumstellar Material
Christopher Bilinski, Nathan Smith, G. Grant Williams +18
We present photometry, spectra, and spectropolarimetry of supernova (SN) 2012ab, mostly obtained over the course of days after discovery. SN 2012ab was a Type IIn (SN II…
A Luminous, Fast Rising UV-Transient Discovered by ROTSE: a Tidal Disruption Event?
J. Vinko, F. Yuan, R. M. Quimby +6
We present follow-up observations of an optical transient (OT) discovered by ROTSE on Jan. 21, 2009. Photometric monitoring was carried out with ROTSE-IIIb in the optical and Swift…
The Optical Luminosity Function of Gamma-ray Bursts deduced from ROTSE-III Observations
X. H. Cui, X. F. Wu, J. J. Wei +16
We present the optical luminosity function (LF) of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) estimated from a uniform sample of 58 GRBs from observations with the Robotic Optical Transient Search Ex…
A Trio of GRB-SNe: GRB 120729A, GRB 130215A / SN 2013ez and GRB 130831A / SN 2013fu
Z. Cano, A. de Ugarte Postigo, A. Pozanenko +62
We present optical and near-infrared (NIR) photometry for three gamma-ray burst supernovae (GRB-SNe): GRB 120729A, GRB 130215A / SN 2013ez and GRB 130831A / SN 2013fu. In the case…
The origin of the early time optical emission of Swift GRB 080310
O. M. Littlejohns, R. Willingale, P. T. O'Brien +28
We present broadband multi-wavelength observations of GRB 080310 at redshift z = 2.43. This burst was bright and long-lived, and unusual in having extensive optical and near IR fol…
Panchromatic observations of the textbook GRB 110205A: constraining physical mechanisms of prompt emission and afterglow
W. Zheng, R. F. Shen, T. Sakamoto +56
We present a comprehensive analysis of a bright, long duration (T90 ~ 257 s) GRB 110205A at redshift z= 2.22. The optical prompt emission was detected by Swift/UVOT, ROTSE-IIIb and…
