Discovery of the Faint Near-IR Afterglow of GRB 030528

A. Rau, J. Greiner, S. Klose +7

We report on the discovery of the near-IR transient of the long-duration gamma-ray burst GRB 030528 and its underlying host galaxy. The near-IR transient was first observed in JHKs…

GRB 030227: the first multiwavelength afterglow of an INTEGRAL GRB

A. J. Castro-Tirado, J. Gorosabel, S. Guziy +39

We present multiwavelength observations of a gamma-ray burst detected by INTEGRAL (GRB 030227) between 5.3 hours and ~1.7 days after the event. Here we report the discovery of a di…

The Host Galaxy of GRB 990712

Lise Christensen, Jens Hjorth, Javier Gorosabel +4

We present a comprehensive study of the z=0.43 host galaxy of GRB 990712, involving ground-based photometry, spectroscopy, and HST imaging. The broad-band UBVRIJHKs photometry is u…

Very high column density and small reddening towards GRB 020124 at z = 3.20

J. Hjorth, P. Møller, J. Gorosabel +27

We present optical and near-infrared observations of the dim afterglow of GRB 020124, obtained between 2 and 68 hours after the gamma-ray burst. The burst occurred in a very faint…

The afterglow and the host galaxy of GRB 011211

P. Jakobsson, J. Hjorth, J. P. U. Fynbo +19

We present optical, near-infrared, and X-ray observations of the optical afterglow (OA) of the X-ray rich, long-duration gamma-ray burst GRB 011211. Hubble Space Telescope (HST) da…

The blue host galaxy of the red GRB 000418

J. Gorosabel, S. Klose, L. Christensen +25

We report on multi-band (UBVRIZJsKs) observations of the host galaxy of the April 18, 2000 gamma-ray burst. The Spectral Energy Distribution (SED) is analysed by fitting empirical…

Variable polarization in the optical afterglow of GRB 021004

E. Rol, R. A. M. J. Wijers, J. P. U. Fynbo +19

We present polarimetric observations of the afterglow of gamma-ray burst (GRB) 021004, obtained with the Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) and the Very Large Telescope (VLT) between 8…

On the Ly-alpha emission from gamma-ray burst host galaxies: evidence for low metallicities

J. P. U. Fynbo, P. Jakobsson, P. Moller +11

We report on the results of a search for Ly-alpha emission from the host galaxy of the z=2.140 GRB 011211 and other galaxies in its surrounding field. We detect Ly-alpha emission f…

A very energetic supernova associated with the gamma-ray burst of 29 March 2003

Jens Hjorth, Jesper Sollerman, Palle Møller +24

Over the past five years evidence has mounted that long-duration (> 2 s) gamma-ray bursts (GRBs)--the most brilliant of all astronomical explosions--signal the collapse of massive…

Optical and near-infrared observations of the GRB020405 afterglow

N. Masetti, E. Palazzi, E. Pian +33

(Abridged) We report on observations of the optical and NIR afterglow of GRB020405. Ground-based optical observations started about 1 day after the GRB and spanned a period of ~10…

The optical/near-IR spectral energy distribution of the GRB 000210 host galaxy

J. Gorosabel, L. Christensen, J. Hjorth +25

We report on UBVRIZJsHKs-band photometry of the dark GRB 000210 host galaxy. Fitting a grid of spectral templates to its Spectral Energy Distribution (SED), we derived a photometri…
