A near-IR spectroscopic search for very-low-mass cool companions to notable DA white dwarfs
P. D. Dobbie, M. R. Burleigh, A. J. Levan +5
We have undertaken a detailed near-IR spectroscopic analysis of eight notable white dwarfs, predominantly of southern declination. In each case the spectrum failed to reveal compel…
The ultimate outcome of black hole - neutron star mergers
Melvyn B. Davies, Andrew J. Levan, Andrew R. King
We present a simple, semi--analytical description for the final stages of mergers of black hole (BH) -- neutron star (NS) systems. Such systems are of much interest as gravitationa…
Discovery of the Near-IR Afterglow and of the Host of GRB 030528
A. Rau, J. Greiner, S. Klose +24
The rapid dissemination of an arcmin-sized HETE-2 localization of the long-duration X-ray flash GRB 030528 led to a ground-based multi-observatory follow-up campaign. We report the…
The line-of-sight towards GRB 030429 at z = 2.66: Probing the matter at stellar, galactic and intergalactic scales
P. Jakobsson, J. Hjorth, J. P. U. Fynbo +21
We report the discovery of the optical afterglow (OA) of the long-duration gamma-ray burst GRB 030429, and present a comprehensive optical/near-infrared dataset used to probe the m…
On the Afterglow of the X-Ray Flash of July 23 2003: Photometric evidence for an off-axis Gamma-Ray Burst with an associated Supernova?
J. P. U. Fynbo, J. Sollerman, J. Hjorth +31
We present optical and near-infrared follow-up observations of the X-Ray Flash (XRF) of July 23 2003. Our observations in the R-band cover the temporal range from 4.2 h to 64 days…
GRB 020410: A Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglow Discovered by its Supernova Light
A. Levan, P. Nugent, A. Fruchter +19
We present the discovery and monitoring of the optical transient (OT) associated with GRB 020410. The fading OT was found by Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations taken 28 and…
