Looking Into the Fireball: ROTSE-III and Swift Observations of Early GRB Afterglows
E. S. Rykoff, F. Aharonian, C. W. Akerlof +21
We report on a complete set of early optical afterglows of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) obtained with the ROTSE-III telescope network from March 2005 through June 2007. This set is comp…

Taxonomy of GRB optical light-curves: identification of a salient class of early afterglows
A. Panaitescu, W. T. Vestrand
The temporal behaviour of the early optical emission from Gamma-Ray Burst afterglows can be divided in four classes: fast-rising with an early peak, slow-rising with a late peak, f…

Detection of GRB 060927 at z = 5.47: Implications for the Use of Gamma-Ray Bursts as Probes of the End of the Dark Ages
A. E. Ruiz-Velasco, H. Swan, E. Troja +54
We report on follow-up observations of the GRB 060927 using the ROTSE-IIIa telescope and a suite of larger aperture ground-based telescopes. An optical afterglow was detected 20 s…
