Strategies for prompt searches for GRB afterglows: the discovery of the GRB 001011 optical/near-infrared counterpart using colour-colour selection
J. Gorosabel, J. U. Fynbo, J. Hjorth +25
We report the discovery of the optical and near-infrared counterparts to GRB 001011. The GRB 001011 error box determined by Beppo-SAX was simultaneously imaged in the near-infrared…
The optical afterglow and host galaxy of GRB 000926
J. P. U. Fynbo, J. Gorosabel, P. Moller +7
In this paper we illustrate with the case of GRB 000926 how Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) can be used as cosmological lighthouses to identify and study star forming galaxies at high reds…
The bright optical afterglow of the long GRB 001007
J. M. Castro Cerón, A. J. Castro-Tirado, J. Gorosabel +35
We present optical follow up observations of the long GRB 001007 between 6.14 hours and ~468 days after the event. An unusually bright optical afterglow (OA) was seen to decline fo…
Constraints on the optical afterglow emission of the short/hard burst GRB 010119
J. Gorosabel, M. I. Andersen, J. Hjorth +7
We report optical observations of the short/hard burst GRB 010119 error box, one of the smallest error boxes reported to date for short/hard GRBs. Limits of R > 22.3 and I > 21.2 a…
Follow-up observations from observatories based in Spain
Javier Gorosabel, Alberto J. Castro-Tirado, Jochen Greiner +4
We present a review of the follow-up observations carried out from observatories located in Spain; Calar-Alto, Izanha and Roque de Los Muchachos. It summarizes the observations car…
GRB 000301C: a possible short/intermediate duration burst connected to a DLA system
J. Gorosabel, J. U. Fynbo, B. L. Jensen +5
We discuss two main aspects of the GRB 000301C afterglow (Fynbo et al. 2000, Jensen et al. 2000); its short duration and its possible connection with a Damped Ly-alpha Absorber (DL…
