The soft X-ray blast in the apparently sub-luminous GRB 031203
D. Watson, S. A. Vaughan, R. Willingale +11
GRB031203 was a very low apparent luminosity gamma-ray burst (GRB). It was also the first GRB with a dust-scattered X-ray halo. The observation of the halo allowed us to infer the…
Outshining the quasars at reionisation: The X-ray spectrum and lightcurve of the redshift 6.29 Gamma-Ray Burst GRB050904
D. Watson, J. N. Reeves, J. Hjorth +7
Gamma-ray burst (GRB) 050904 is the most distant X-ray source known, at z=6.295, comparable to the farthest AGN and galaxies. Its X-ray flux decays, but not as a power-law; it is d…
The GRB 030329 host: a blue low metallicity subluminous galaxy with intense star formation
J. Gorosabel, D. Pérez-Ramírez, J. Sollerman +13
We present broad band photometry and spectroscopic observations of the host galaxy of GRB 030329. Analysis of the spectral emission lines shows that the host is likely a low metall…
Ly-alpha and UV emission from high-redshift GRB hosts: To what extent do GRBs trace star formation?
P. Jakobsson, G. Bjornsson, J. P. U. Fynbo +9
We report the result of a search for Ly-alpha emission from the host galaxies of the gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) 030226 (z = 1.986), 021004 (z = 2.335) and 020124 (z = 3.198). We find…
The red optical afterglow of GRB 030725
G. Pugliese, P. Møller, J. Gorosabel +6
We present a photometric study of the optical counterpart of the long-duration Gamma Ray Burst (GRB) 030725, which triggered the HETE FREGATE and WXM instruments on July 25th, 2003…
Late-epoch optical and near-infrared observations of the GRB000911 afterglow and its host galaxy
N. Masetti, E. Palazzi, E. Pian +28
We present the results of an optical and near-infrared (NIR) monitoring campaign of the counterpart of Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) 000911, located at redshift z=1.06, from 5 days to more…
