The luminous host galaxy, faint supernova and rapid afterglow rebrightening of GRB 100418A

A. de Ugarte Postigo, C. C. Thoene, K. Bensch +35

Long gamma-ray bursts give us the chance to study both their extreme physics and the star-forming galaxies in which they form. GRB 100418A, at a z = 0.6239, had a bright optical an…

The fraction of ionizing radiation from massive stars that escapes to the intergalactic medium

N. R. Tanvir, J. P. U. Fynbo, A. de Ugarte Postigo +38

The part played by stars in the ionization of the intergalactic medium remains an open question. A key issue is the proportion of the stellar ionizing radiation that escapes the ga…

Late-time observations of the relativistic tidal disruption flare candidate Swift J1112.2-8238

G. C. Brown, A. J. Levan, E. R. Stanway +6

We present late-time follow-up of the relativistic tidal disruption flare candidate Swift J1112.2-8238. We confirm the previously determined redshift of based o…

Investigating the diversity of supernovae type Iax: A MUSE and NOT spectroscopic study of their environments

J. D. Lyman, F. Taddia, M. D. Stritzinger +9

SN 2002cx-like Type Ia supernovae (also known as SNe Iax) represent one of the most numerous peculiar SN classes. They differ from normal SNe Ia by having fainter peak magnitudes,…

A long optical plateau in the afterglow of the Extended Emission short GRB 150424A: Evidence for energy injection by a magnetar?

F. Knust, J. Greiner, H. J. van Eerten +14

Short-duration GRBs with extended emission form a subclass of short GRBs, comprising about 15% of the short-duration sample. Afterglow detections of short GRBs are also rare (about…

Gas inflow and outflow in an interacting high-redshift galaxy: The remarkable host environment of GRB 080810 at

P. Wiseman, D. A. Perley, P. Schady +5

We reveal multiple components of an interacting galaxy system at through a detailed analysis of the exquisite high-resolution Keck/HIRES spectrum of the afterglow of…
