Diffuse Thermal X-Ray Emission in the Core of the Young Massive Cluster Westerlund 1
P. J. Kavanagh, L. Norci, E. J. A. Meurs
We present an analysis of the diffuse hard X-ray emission in the core of the young massive Galactic cluster Westerlund 1 based on a 48 ks XMM-Newton observation. Chandra results fo…
Statistics and characteristics of MgII absorbers along GRB lines of sight observed with VLT-UVES
Susanna D. Vergani, Patrick Petitjean, Cedric Ledoux +3
We analyse the properties of MgII absorption systems detected along the sightlines toward GRBs using a sample of 10 GRB afterglow spectra obtained with VLT-UVES over the past six y…
Non variability of intervening absorbers observed in the UVES spectra of the "naked-eye" GRB080319
V. D'Elia, F. Fiore, P. Goldoni +7
The aim of this paper is to investigate the properties of the intervening absorbers lying along the line of sight of Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) 080319B through the analysis of its optic…
Probing the complex environments of GRB host galaxies and intervening systems: high resolution spectroscopy of GRB050922C
S. Piranomonte, P. A. Ward, F. Fiore +20
The aim of this paper is to investigate the environment of gamma ray bursts (GRBs) and the interstellar matter of their host galaxies. We use to this purpose high resolution spectr…
The complex light-curve of the afterglow of GRB071010A
S. Covino, P. D'Avanzo, A. Klotz +51
We present and discuss the results of an extensive observational campaign devoted to GRB071010A, a long-duration gamma-ray burst detected by the Swift satellite. This event was fol…
UVES/VLT High Resolution Spectroscopy of Gamma Ray Burst Afterglows
S. Piranomonte, V. D'Elia, P. Ward +2
We present early time, high resolution spectroscopy of three GRB afterglows: GRB050730, 050922C and 060418. These data give us precious information on the kinematics, ionization an…
