Late time observations of GRB080319B: jet break, host galaxy and accompanying supernova
Nial R. Tanvir, Evert Rol, Andrew Levan +15
The Swift discovered GRB080319B was by far the most distant source ever observed at naked eye brightness, reaching a peak apparent magnitude of 5.3 at a redshift of z=0.937. We pre…
The Dust Scattering Model Can Not Explain The Shallow X-ray Decay in GRB Afterglows
Rong-Feng Shen, Richard Willingale, Pawan Kumar +2
A dust scattering model was recently proposed to explain the shallow X-ray decay (plateau) observed prevalently in Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) early afterglows. In this model the plateau…
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…
GRB 050826: A Subluminous Event at z = 0.296 Finds its Place in the Luminosity Distribution of Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows
N. Mirabal, J. P. Halpern, P. T. O'Brien
We present the optical identification and spectroscopy of the host galaxy of GRB 050826 at a redshift z = 0.296 +/- 0.001. Image subtraction among observations obtained on three co…
Swift observations of GRB 070110: an extraordinary X-ray afterglow powered by the central engine
E. Troja, G. Cusumano, P. O'Brien +22
We present a detailed analysis of Swift multi-wavelength observations of GRB 070110 and its remarkable afterglow. The early X-ray light curve, interpreted as the tail of the prompt…
Panchromatic study of GRB 060124: from precursor to afterglow
P. Romano, S. Campana, G. Chincarini +35
We present observations of GRB 060124, the first event for which both the prompt and the afterglow emission could be observed simultaneously and in their entirety by the three Swif…
