Discovery of the optical afterglow and host galaxy of short GRB181123B at : Implications for Delay Time Distributions
K. Paterson, W. Fong, A. Nugent +19
We present the discovery of the optical afterglow and host galaxy of the {\it Swift} short-duration gamma-ray burst, GRB\,181123B. Observations with Gemini-North starting at $\appr…
Observation of inverse Compton emission from a long -ray burst
V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +301
Long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) originate from ultra-relativistic jets launched from the collapsing cores of dying massive stars. They are characterised by an initial phase o…
GRB 170817A as a Refreshed Shock Afterglow viewed off-axis
Gavin P. Lamb, Andrew J. Levan, Nial R. Tanvir
Energy injection into the external shock system that generates the afterglow to a gamma-ray burst (GRB) can result in a re-brightening of the emission. Here we investigate the off-…
Observational constraints on the optical and near-infrared emission from the neutron star-black hole binary merger S190814bv
K. Ackley, L. Amati, C. Barbieri +151
On 2019 August 14, the LIGO and Virgo interferometers detected a high-significance event labelled S190814bv. Preliminary analysis of the GW data suggests that the event was likely…
A Search for Neutron Star-Black Hole Binary Mergers in the Short Gamma-Ray Burst Population
B. P. Gompertz, A. J. Levan, N. R. Tanvir
Short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) are now known to be the product of the merger of two compact objects. However, two possible formation channels exist: neutron star -- neutron star (N…
