Dust and Metal Column Densities in Gamma-Ray Burst Host Galaxies
P. Schady, M. J. Page, S. R. Oates +7
In this paper we present the results from the analysis of a sample of 28 gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglow spectral energy distributions, spanning the X-ray through to near-infrared…
Swift and Fermi observations of the early afterglow of the short Gamma-Ray Burst 090510
M. De Pasquale, P. Schady, N. P. M. Kuin +11
We present the observations of GRB090510 performed by the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope and the Swift observatory. This is a bright, short burst that shows an extended emission d…
Multi-Wavelength Properties of the Type IIb SN 2008ax
P. W. A. Roming, T. A. Pritchard, P. J. Brown +11
We present the UV, optical, X-ray, and radio properties of the Type IIb SN 2008ax discovered in NGC 4490. The observations in the UV are one of the earliest of a Type IIb supernova…
Swift-UVOT captures the earliest ultraviolet spectrum of a Gamma Ray Burst
N. P. M. Kuin, W. B. Landsman, M. J. Page +22
We present the earliest ever ultraviolet spectrum of a gamma-ray burst (GRB) as observed with the Swift-UVOT. The GRB 081203A spectrum was observed for 50 seconds with the UV grism…
A statistical study of gamma-ray burst afterglows measured by the Swift Ultra-violet Optical Telescope
S. R. Oates, M. J. Page, P. Schady +14
We present the first statistical analysis of 27 UVOT optical/ultra-violet lightcurves of GRB afterglows. We have found, through analysis of the lightcurves in the observer's frame,…
