The afterglow of GRB050709 and the nature of the short-hard gamma-ray bursts

D. B. Fox, D. A. Frail, P. A. Price +33

The final chapter in the long-standing mystery of the gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) centres on the origin of the short-hard class, suspected on theoretical grounds to result from the coa…

Discovery and identification of the very high redshift afterglow of GRB 050904

J. Haislip, M. Nysewander, D. Reichart +39

In 2000, Lamb and Reichart predicted that gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and their afterglows occur in sufficient numbers and at sufficient brightnesses at very high redshifts (z > 5) to…

The afterglow and elliptical host galaxy of the short gamma-ray burst GRB 050724

E. Berger, P. A. Price, S. B. Cenko +21

Despite a rich phenomenology, gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are divided into two classes based on their duration and spectral hardness -- the long-soft and the short-hard bursts. The dis…

An HST Search for Supernovae Accompanying X-ray Flashes

A. M. Soderberg, S. R. Kulkarni, D. B. Fox +24

We present the results from an Hubble Space Telescope/ACS search for supernovae associated with X-ray flashes 020903, 040701, 040812 and 040916. We find strong evidence that XRF 02…

The Discovery of the Optical and Near-IR Afterglows of the First Swift Gamma-Ray Bursts

E. Berger, D. B. Fox, S. R. Kulkarni +16

We present optical and near-infrared searches for afterglow emission from the first four Swift bursts with accurate positions from the X-ray Telescope (XRT). Using telescopes at La…
