Optical and Near-infrared Observations of the Distant but Bright 'New Year's Burst' GRB 220101A
Zi-Pei Zhu, Wei-Hua Lei, Daniele B. Malesani +26
High-redshift gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) provide a powerful tool to probe the early universe, but still for relatively few do we have good observations of the afterglow. We here repor…
GRB 221009A: Discovery of an Exceptionally Rare Nearby and Energetic Gamma-Ray Burst
Maia A. Williams, Jamie A. Kennea, S. Dichiara +53
We report the discovery of the unusually bright long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB), GRB 221009A, as observed by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory (Swift), Monitor of All-sky X-ra…
Swift/UVOT follow-up of Gravitational Wave Alerts in the O3 era
S. R. Oates, F. E. Marshall, A. A. Breeveld +41
In this paper, we report on the observational performance of the Swift Ultra-violet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) in response to the Gravitational Wave alerts announced by the Advanced…
Swift Multiwavelength Follow-up of LVC S200224ca and the Implications for Binary Black Hole Mergers
N. J. Klingler, A. Lien, S. R. Oates +41
On 2020 February 24, during their third observing run ("O3"), the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory and Virgo Collaboration (LVC) detected S200224ca: a candidate…
Observation of inverse Compton emission from a long -ray burst
V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +301
Long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) originate from ultra-relativistic jets launched from the collapsing cores of dying massive stars. They are characterised by an initial phase o…
A study of gamma-ray burst afterglows as they first come into view of the Swift Ultraviolet and Optical Telescope
M. J. Page, S. R. Oates, M. De Pasquale +6
We examine the the emission from optically bright gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows as the Ultraviolet and Optical Telescope (UVOT) on the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory first begin…
