GRB 070714B - Discovery of the Highest Spectroscopically Confirmed Short Burst Redshift
J. F. Graham, A. S. Fruchter, A. J. Levan +10
We detect the optical afterglow and host galaxy of GRB 070714B. Our observations of the afterglow show an initial plateau in the lightcurve for approximately the first 5 to 25 minu…
Photometry and spectroscopy of GRB 060526: A detailed study of the afterglow and host galaxy of a z=3.2 gamma-ray burst
C. C. Thöne, D. A. Kann, G. Jóhannesson +58
Aims: With this paper we want to investigate the highly variable afterglow light curve and environment of gamma-ray burst (GRB) 060526 at . Methods: We present one of the…
Multiwavelength analysis of the intriguing GRB 061126: the reverse shock scenario and magnetization
A. Gomboc, S. Kobayashi, C. Guidorzi +30
We present a detailed study of the prompt and afterglow emission from Swift GRB 061126 using BAT, XRT, UVOT data and multi-color optical imaging from ten ground-based telescopes. G…
GRB 070714B - Discovery of the Highest Spectroscopically Confirmed Short Burst Redshift
J. F. Graham, A. S. Fruchter, A. J. Levan +5
Gemini Nod & Shuffle spectroscopy on the host of the short GRB 070714B shows a single emission line at 7167 angstroms which, based on a grizJHK photometric redshift, we conclude is…
No supernovae associated with two long-duration gamma ray bursts
Johan P. U. Fynbo, Darach Watson, Christina C. Thoene +28
It is now accepted that long duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are produced during the collapse of a massive star. The standard "collapsar" model predicts that a broad-lined and lum…
GRB 050911: a black hole - neutron star merger or a naked GRB
K. L. Page, A. R. King, A. J. Levan +16
GRB 050911, discovered by the Swift Burst Alert Telescope, was not seen 4.6 hr later by the Swift X-ray Telescope, making it one of the very few X-ray non-detections of a Gamma-Ray…
