The supernova of the MAGIC GRB190114C
A. Melandri, L. Izzo, E. Pian +42
We observed GRB190114C (redshift z = 0.4245), the first GRB ever detected at TeV energies, at optical and near-infrared wavelengths with several ground-based telescopes and the Hub…
Target of Opportunity Observations of Gravitational Wave Events with Vera C. Rubin Observatory
Igor Andreoni, Raffaella Margutti, Om Sharan Salafia +52
The discovery of the electromagnetic counterpart to the binary neutron star merger GW170817 has opened the era of gravitational-wave multi-messenger astronomy. Rapid identification…
GRB 160410A: the first Chemical Study of the Interstellar Medium of a Short GRB
J. F. Agüí Fernández, C. C. Thöne, D. A. Kann +27
Short Gamma-Ray Bursts (SGRBs) are produced by the coalescence of compact binary systems which are remnants of massive stars. GRB 160410A is classified as a short-duration GRB with…
Exploring compact binary merger host galaxies and environments with
S. Mandhai, G. P. Lamb, N. R. Tanvir +5
Compact binaries such as double neutron stars or a neutron star paired with a black-hole, are strong sources of gravitational waves during coalescence and also the likely progenito…
Inclination estimates from off-axis GRB afterglow modelling
Gavin P Lamb, Joseph J Fernández, Fergus Hayes +7
For gravitational wave (GW) detected neutron star mergers, one of the leading candidates for electromagnetic (EM) counterparts is the afterglow from an ultra-relativistic jet. Wher…
Gamma-ray bursts as probes of high-redshift Lyman-alpha emitters and radiative transfer models
J. -B. Vielfaure, S. D. Vergani, M. Gronke +7
We present the updated census and statistics of Lyman- emitting long gamma-ray bursts host galaxies (LAE-LGRBs). We investigate the properties of a sub-sample of LAE-LGRBs and t…
Synergies of THESEUS with the large facilities of the 2030s and guest observer opportunities
P. Rosati, S. Basa, A. W. Blain +37
The proposed THESEUS mission will vastly expand the capabilities to monitor the high-energy sky, and will exploit large samples of gamma-ray bursts to probe the early Universe back…
Gamma Ray Burst studies with THESEUS
G. Ghirlanda, R. Salvaterra, M. Toffano +30
Gamma-ray Bursts (GRBs) are the most powerful transients in the Universe, over-shining for a few seconds all other -ray sky sources. Their emission is produced within narrowly c…
Multi-Messenger Astrophysics with THESEUS in the 2030s
Riccardo Ciolfi, Giulia Stratta, Marica Branchesi +63
Multi-messenger astrophysics is becoming a major avenue to explore the Universe, with the potential to span a vast range of redshifts. The growing synergies between different probe…
Exploration of the high-redshift universe enabled by THESEUS
N. R. Tanvir, E. Le Floc'h, L. Christensen +36
At peak, long-duration gamma-ray bursts are the most luminous sources of electromagnetic radiation known. Since their progenitors are massive stars, they provide a tracer of star f…
The THESEUS space mission: science goals, requirements and mission concept
L. Amati, P. T. O'Brien, D. Götz +31
THESEUS, one of the two space mission concepts being studied by ESA as candidates for next M5 mission within its Comsic Vision programme, aims at fully exploiting Gamma-Ray Bursts…
GRB jet structure and the jet break
Gavin P Lamb, D. Alexander Kann, Joseph John Fernández +3
We investigate the shape of the jet break in within-beam gamma-ray burst (GRB) optical afterglows for various lateral jet structure profiles. We consider cases with and without lat…
Probing Kilonova Ejecta Properties Using a Catalog of Short Gamma-Ray Burst Observations
J. C. Rastinejad, W. Fong, C. D. Kilpatrick +11
The discovery of GW170817 and GRB 170817A in tandem with AT 2017gfo cemented the connection between neutron star mergers, short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), and kilonovae. To investiga…
