The dark GRB080207 in an extremely red host and the implications for GRBs in highly obscured environments
K. M. Svensson, N. R. Tanvir, D. A. Perley +8
[Abridged] We present comprehensive X-ray, optical, near- and mid-infrared, and sub-mm observations of GRB 080207 and its host galaxy. The afterglow was undetected in the optical a…
A tale of two GRB-SNe at a common redshift of z = 0.54
Z. Cano, D. Bersier, C. Guidorzi +71
We present ground-based and HST optical observations of the optical transients (OTs) of long-duration Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) 060729 and 090618, both at a redshift of z = 0.54. For…
The host galaxies of core-collapse supernovae and gamma ray bursts
K. M. Svensson, A. J. Levan, N. R. Tanvir +2
We present a comparative study of the galactic and small scale environments of gamma-ray bursts (GRB) and core collapse supernovae (CCSN). We use a sample of 34 GRB hosts at z<1.2,…
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 nature of hypervelocity stars as inferred from their galactic trajectories
Karl M. Svensson, Ross P. Church, Melvyn B. Davies
We have computed the galactic trajectories of twelve hypervelocity stars (HVSs) under the assumption that they originated in the Galactic Centre. We show that eight of these twelve…
