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…
GRB 140606B / iPTF14bfu: Detection of shock-breakout emission from a cosmological gamma-ray burst?
Z. Cano, A. de Ugarte Postigo, D. Perley +13
We present optical and near-infrared photometry of GRB~140606B (), and optical photometry and spectroscopy of its associated supernova (SN). The results of our modelling i…
GRB hosts through cosmic time - VLT/X-Shooter emission-line spectroscopy of 96 GRB-selected galaxies at 0.1 < z < 3.6
T. Krühler, D. Malesani, J. P. U. Fynbo +41
[Abridged] We present data and initial results from VLT/X-Shooter emission-line spectroscopy of 96 GRB-selected galaxies at 0.1<z<3.6, the largest sample of GRB host spectroscopy a…
The Swift Gamma-Ray Burst Host Galaxy Legacy Survey - I. Sample Selection and Redshift Distribution
D. A. Perley, T. Krühler, S. Schulze +20
We introduce the Swift Gamma-Ray Burst Host Galaxy Legacy Survey ("SHOALS"), a multi-observatory high-redshift galaxy survey targeting the largest unbiased sample of long-duration…
Spectrophotometric analysis of GRB afterglow extinction curves with X-shooter
J. Japelj, S. Covino, A. Gomboc +21
In this work we use gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglow spectra observed with the VLT/X-shooter spectrograph to measure rest-frame extinction in GRB lines-of-sight by modeling the broa…
The Optically Unbiased Gamma-Ray Burst Host (TOUGH) Survey. VII. The Host Galaxy Luminosity Function: Probing the Relationship Between GRBs and Star Formation to Redshift
S. Schulze, R. Chapman, J. Hjorth +12
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) offer a route to characterizing star-forming galaxies and quantifying high- star formation that is distinct from the approach of traditional galaxy surve…
