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 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…
The extraordinarily bright optical afterglow of GRB 991208 and its host galaxy
A. J. Castro-Tirado, V. V. Sokolov, J. Gorosabel +50
Observations of the extraordinarily bright optical afterglow (OA) of GRB 991208 started 2.1 d after the event. The flux decay constant of the OA in the R-band is -2.30 +/- 0.07 up…
The optical afterglow and host galaxy of GRB000926
J. U. Fynbo, J. Gorosabel, T. H. Dall +27
We present the discovery of the Optical Transient (OT) of the long-duration gamma-ray burst GRB000926. The optical transient was detected independently with the Nordic Optical Tele…
