GRB 080913 at redshift 6.7
J. Greiner, T. Kruehler, J. P. U. Fynbo +44
We report on the detection by Swift of GRB 080913, and subsequent optical/near-infrared follow-up observations by GROND which led to the discovery of its optical/NIR afterglow and…
Simultaneous polarization monitoring of supernovae SN2008D/XT080109 and SN2007uy: isolating geometry from dust
J. Gorosabel, A. de Ugarte Postigo, A. J. Castro-Tirado +16
The possible existence of a continuum encompassing the diversity of explosive stellar deaths,ranging from ordinary SNe to relativistic hypernovae associated with long duration GRBs…
Optical and infrared flares from a transient Galactic soft gamma-ray repeater
A. J. Castro-Tirado, A. de Ugarte Postigo, J. Gorosabel +33
Soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs) are a rare type of gamma-ray transient sources that are ocasionally detected as bursts in the high-energy sky. They are thought to be produced by ma…
GRB 060605: multi-wavelength analysis of the first GRB observed using integral field spectroscopy
Patrizia Ferrero, Sylvio Klose, David Alexander Kann +16
The long and relatively faint gamma-ray burst GRB 060605 detected by \emph{Swift}/BAT lasted about 20 sec. Its afterglow could be observed with \emph{Swift}/XRT for nearly 1 day, w…
The Afterglows of Swift-era Gamma-Ray Bursts II.: Type I GRB versus Type II GRB Optical Afterglows
D. A. Kann, S. Klose, B. Zhang +21
We use a large sample of GRB afterglow and prompt-emission data (adding further GRB afterglow observations in this work) to compare the optical afterglows (or the lack thereof) of…
