A study of the prompt and afterglow emission of the Short GRB 061201
G. Stratta, P. D'Avanzo, S. Piranomonte +30
Our knowledge of the intrinsic properties of short duration Gamma-Ray Bursts has relied, so far, only upon a few cases for which the estimate of the distance and an extended, multi…
Rest frame light curves of Swift GRBs
V. Mangano, V. La Parola, E. Troja +12
We have computed the luminosity rest frame light curves of the first 40 Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected by Swift with well established redshift. We studied average properties of t…
Pile-up correction for the Swift-XRT observations in WT mode
T. Mineo, P. Romano, V. Mangano +12
The detector at the focal plane of the Swift X-ray Telescope (XRT) supports four readout modes, automatically changed on board, to cover the dynamical range of fluxes and rapid var…
Swift observations of GRB 070110: an extraordinary X-ray afterglow powered by the central engine
E. Troja, G. Cusumano, P. O'Brien +22
We present a detailed analysis of Swift multi-wavelength observations of GRB 070110 and its remarkable afterglow. The early X-ray light curve, interpreted as the tail of the prompt…
The short GRB 051210 observed by Swift
V. La Parola, V. Mangano, B. Zhang +12
We report on the short GRB051210 detected by the Swift-BAT. The light curve, on which we focus mainly, shows a hint of extended emission in the BAT energy range, a steep decay of t…
Swift GRBs: the early afterglow spectral energy distribution
G. Tagliaferri, D. Malesani, S. D. Vergani +16
We present the first results of a program to systematically study the optical-to-X-ray spectral energy distribution (SED) of Swift GRB afterglows with known redshift. The goal is t…
