The optical rebrightening of GRB100814A: an interplay of forward and reverse shocks?

Massimiliano De Pasquale, N. P. M. Kuin, S. Oates +36

We present a wide dataset of gamma-ray, X-ray, UVOIR, and radio observations of the Swift GRB100814A. At the end of the slow decline phase of the X-ray and optical afterglow, this…

New constraints on GRB jet geometry and relativistic shock physics

C. Guidorzi, C. G. Mundell, R. Harrison +23

We use high--quality, multi-band observations of Swift GRB120404A, from gamma-ray to radio frequencies, together with the new hydrodynamics code of van Eerten et al. (2012) to test…

GRB 130427A: a Nearby Ordinary Monster

A. Maselli, A. Melandri, L. Nava +63

Long-duration Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) are an extremely rare outcome of the collapse of massive stars, and are typically found in the distant Universe. Because of its intrinsic lumi…

GRB 091024A and the nature of ultra-long gamma-ray bursts

F. J. Virgili, C. G. Mundell, V. Pal'shin +30

We present a broadband study of gamma-ray burst (GRB) 091024A within the context of other ultra-long-duration GRBs. An unusually long burst detected by Konus-Wind, Swift, and Fermi…

Are gamma-ray bursts the same at high redshift and low redshift?

O. M. Littlejohns, N. R. Tanvir, R. Willingale +3

The majority of Swift gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) observed at z > 6 have prompt durations of T90 < 30s, which, at first sight, is surprising given that cosmological time-dilation means…

Are GRBs the same at high and low redshift?

O. M. Littlejohns, N. R. Tanvir, R. Willingale +3

Due to their highly luminous nature, gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are useful tools in studying the early Universe (up to z = 10). We consider whether the available subset of Swift high…
