Detection of the high z GRB 080913 and its implications on progenitors and energy extraction mechanisms
D. Perez-Ramirez, A. de Ugarte Postigo, J. Gorosabel +15
Aims: We present multiwavelength observations of one of the most distant gamma-ray bursts detected so far, GRB 080913. Based on these observations, we consider whether it could be…
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…
The WEBT Campaign on the Blazar 3C279 in 2006
M. Boettcher
The quasar 3C279 was the target of an extensive multiwavelength monitoring campaign from January through April 2006, including an optical-IR-radio monitoring campaign by the Whole…
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…
GRB 050509b: the elusive optical/nIR/mm afterglow of a short-duration GRB
A. J. Castro-Tirado, A. de Ugarte Postigo, J. Gorosabel +17
We present multiwavelength (optical/near infrared/millimetre) observations of a short duration gamma-ray burst detected by Swift (GRB 050509b) collected between 0 seconds and ~18.8…
