Are the hosts of Gamma-Ray Bursts sub-luminous and blue galaxies?

E. Le Floc'h, P. -A. Duc, I. F. Mirabel +11

We present K-band imaging observations of ten Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) host galaxies. We compare their observed and absolute K magnitudes as well as their R-K colours with those of ot…

VLT and HST Observations of the Host Galaxy of GRB990705

E. Le Floc'h, P. -A. Duc, I. F. Mirabel +6

We present VLT spectroscopic observations of Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) 990705 host galaxy and highlight the benefits provided by the prompt-phase features of GRBs to derive the redshif…

The ionising cluster of 30 Doradus.IV. Stellar kinematics

G. Bosch, F. Selman, J. Melnick +1

On the basis of multislit spectroscopy of 180 stars in the ionising cluster of 30 Doradus we present reliable radial velocities for 55 stars. We calculate a radial velocity dispers…

Gas properties of HII and Starburst galaxies: relation with the stellar population

D. Raimann, T. Storchi-Bergmann, E. Bica +2

We study the gas emission of galaxies with active star formation, consisting mostly of HII galaxies and Starbursts, as well as some Seyfert 2s, and determine chemical and physical…

Adaptive Optics observations of LBQS 0108+0028: K-band detection of the host galaxy of a radio-quiet QSO at z=2

I. Aretxaga, D. Le Mignant, J. Melnick +2

We report the first unambiguous detection of the host galaxy of a normal radio-quiet QSO at high-redshift in K-band. The luminosity of the host comprises about 35% of the total K-b…
