Future Perspectives for Gamma-ray Burst Detection from Space

Enrico Bozzo, Lorenzo Amati, Wayne Baumgartner +35

Since their first discovery in the late 1960s, Gamma-ray bursts have attracted an exponentially growing interest from the international community due to their central role in the m…

A study of gamma-ray burst afterglows as they first come into view of the Swift Ultraviolet and Optical Telescope

M. J. Page, S. R. Oates, M. De Pasquale +6

We examine the the emission from optically bright gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows as the Ultraviolet and Optical Telescope (UVOT) on the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory first begin…
