High-resolution spectroscopy of Boyajian's star during optical dimming events
M. J. Martínez González, C. González-Fernández, A. Asensio Ramos +13
Boyajian's star is an apparently normal main sequence F-type star with a very unusual light curve. The dipping activity of the star, discovered during the Kepler mission, presents…
Challenging GRB models through the broadband dataset of GRB060908
S. Covino, S. Campana, M. L. Conciatore +37
Context: Multiwavelength observations of gamma-ray burst prompt and afterglow emission are a key tool to disentangle the various possible emission processes and scenarios proposed…
The Sooner: a Large Robotic Telescope
G. Chincarini, M. Zannoni, S. Covino +30
The approach of Observational Astronomy is mainly aimed at the construction of larger aperture telescopes, more sensitive detectors and broader wavelength coverage. Certainly fruit…
GRB 090423 at a redshift of z~8.1
R. Salvaterra, M. Della Valle, S. Campana +42
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBSs) are produced by rare types of massive stellar explosions. Their rapidly fading afterglows are often bright enough at optical wavelengths, that they are det…
The prompt, high resolution spectroscopic view of the "naked-eye" GRB080319B
V. D'Elia, F. Fiore, R. Perna +21
GRB080319B reached 5th optical magnitude during the burst prompt emission. Thanks to the VLT/UVES rapid response mode, we observed its afterglow just 8m:30s after the GRB onset whe…
UVES/VLT high resolution spectroscopy of GRB 050730 afterglow: probing the features of the GRB environment
V. D'Elia, F. Fiore, E. Meurs +44
We analyze high resolution spectroscopic observations of the optical afterglow of GRB050730, obtained with UVES@VLT about hours after the GRB trigger. The spectrum shows that the I…
