The Optical/NIR afterglow of GRB 111209A: Complex yet not Unprecedented

D. A. Kann, P. Schady, F. Olivares E. +24

Afterglows of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) are simple in the most basic model, but can show many complex features. The ultra-long duration GRB 111209A, one of the longest GRBs ever dete…

The 80 Ms follow-up of the X-ray afterglow of GRB 130427A challenges the standard forward shock model

M. De Pasquale, M. J. Page, D. A. Kann +12

GRB 130427A was the brightest gamma-ray burst detected in the last 30 years. With an equivalent isotropic energy output of erg and redshift , it uniquely…

The optical identifcation of events with poorly defined locations: The case of the Fermi GBM GRB140801A

V. M. Lipunov, J. Gorosabel, M. V. Pruzhinskaya +50

We report the early discovery of the optical afterglow of gamma-ray burst (GRB) 140801A in the 137 deg 3- error-box of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM). MASTER is the…

A quiescent galaxy at the position of the long GRB 050219A

A. Rossi, S. Piranomonte, S. Savaglio +25

Long-duration gamma-ray bursts (LGRBs) are produced by the collapse of very massive stars. Due to the short lifetime of their progenitors, LGRBs pinpoint star-forming galaxies. We…

The optical rebrightening of GRB100814A: an interplay of forward and reverse shocks?

Massimiliano De Pasquale, N. P. M. Kuin, S. Oates +36

We present a wide dataset of gamma-ray, X-ray, UVOIR, and radio observations of the Swift GRB100814A. At the end of the slow decline phase of the X-ray and optical afterglow, this…

The circumburst density profile around GRB progenitors: a statistical study

S. Schulze, S. Klose, G. Björnsson +6

According to our present understanding, long GRBs originate from the collapse of massive stars while short bursts are due to the coalescence of compact stellar objects. Since the a…

The Swift/Fermi GRB 080928 from 1 eV to 150 keV

A. Rossi, S. Schulze, S. Klose +28

We present the results of a comprehensive study of the gamma-ray burst 080928 and of its afterglow. GRB 080928 was a long burst detected by Swift/BAT and Fermi/GBM. It is one of th…
