New Robotic Telescope: The big eye to observe the transient Universe
C. M. Gutiérrez, J. Barrera, J. Bento +20
NRT is an international project to build and operate the world's largest robotic telescope. The telescope will have a segmented primary mirror with an equivalent diameter of 4 m, a…
The 4 meter New Robotic Telescope project: an updated report
C. M. Gutiérrez, M. Torres, A. Oria +23
The New Robotic Telescope (NRT) is an international collaboration to build and operate a 4 m diameter fully robotic telescope. The telescope will take advantage of the superb atmos…
GRB 210619B: first gamma-ray burst detection by the novel polarimeter MOPTOP
M. Shrestha, I. A. Steele, S. Kobayashi +4
GRB~210619B was a bright long gamma-ray burst (GRB) which was optically followed up by the novel polarimeter MOPTOP on the Liverpool Telescope (LT). This was the first GRB detectio…
The SQUALO project (Star formation in QUiescent And Luminous Objects) I: clump-fed accretion mechanism in high-mass star-forming objects
A. Traficante, B. M. Jones, A. Avison +10
The formation mechanism of the most massive stars is far from completely understood. It is still unclear if the formation is core-fed or clump-fed, i.e. if the process is an extens…
Synthetic dust polarization emission maps at 353 GHz for an observer placed inside a Local Bubble-like cavity
E. Maconi, J. D. Soler, S. Reissl +10
We present a study of synthetic observations of polarized dust emission at 353 GHz as seen by an observer within a cavity in the interstellar medium (ISM). The cavity is selected f…
The role of the magnetic fields in GRB outflows
N. Jordana-Mitjans, C. G. Mundell, S. Kobayashi +12
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are bright extragalactic flashes of gamma-ray radiation and briefly the most energetic explosions in the Universe. Their catastrophic origin (the merger of…
A short gamma-ray burst from a proto-magnetar remnant
N. Jordana-Mitjans, C. G. Mundell, C. Guidorzi +10
The contemporaneous detection of gravitational waves and gamma rays from the GW170817/GRB 170817A, followed by kilonova emission a day after, confirmed compact binary neutron-star…
Polarimetry and Photometry of Gamma-Ray Bursts Afterglows with RINGO3
M. Shrestha, I. A. Steele, S. Kobayashi +7
We present photometric and polarimetric measurements of gamma-ray burst (GRB) optical afterglows observed by the RINGO3 imaging polarimeter over its 7 year lifetime mounted o…
Limits on optical polarization during the prompt phase of GRB 140430A
D. Kopac, C. G. Mundell, J. Japelj +17
Gamma-ray burst GRB 140430A was detected by the Swift satellite and observed promptly with the imaging polarimeter RINGO3 mounted on the Liverpool Telescope, with observations begi…
The nature of the late achromatic bump in GRB 120326A
A. Melandri, F. J. Virgili, C. Guidorzi +24
The long gamma-ray burst GRB 120326A at redshift exhibited a multi-band light curve with a striking feature: a late-time, long-lasting achromatic rebrighten…
Constraining GRB Emission Physics with Extensive Early-Time, Multiband Follow-up
A. Cucchiara, S. B. Cenko, J. S. Bloom +21
Understanding the origin and diversity of emission processes responsible for Gamma-ray Bursts (GRBs) remains a pressing challenge. While prompt and contemporaneous panchromatic obs…
A faint optical flash in dust-obscured GRB 080603A - implications for GRB prompt emission mechanisms
C. Guidorzi, S. Kobayashi, D. A. Perley +23
We report the detection of a faint optical flash by the 2-m Faulkes Telescope North simultaneously with the second of two prompt gamma-ray pulses in INTEGRAL gamma-ray burst (GRB)…
GRB 090313 and the Origin of Optical Peaks in GRB Light Curves: Implications for Lorentz Factors and Radio Flares
A. Melandri, S. Kobayashi, C. G. Mundell +18
We use a sample of 19 Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) that exhibit single-peaked optical light curves to test the standard fireball model by investigating the relationship between the time…
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…
