The obscured hyper-energetic GRB 120624B hosted by a luminous compact galaxy at z = 2.20
A. de Ugarte Postigo, S. Campana, C. C. Thoene +11
Gamma-ray bursts are the most luminous explosions that we can witness in the Universe. Studying the most extreme cases of these phenomena allows us to constrain the limits for the…
Spectroscopy of the short-hard GRB 130603B: The host galaxy and environment of a compact object merger
A. de Ugarte Postigo, C. C. Thoene, A. Rowlinson +40
Short duration gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) are thought to be related to the violent merger of compact objects, such as neutron stars or black holes, which makes them promising sources…
The distribution of equivalent widths in long GRB afterglow spectra
A. de Ugarte Postigo, J. P. U. Fynbo, C. C. Thoene +11
The extreme brightness of gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows and their simple spectral shape make them ideal beacons to study the interstellar medium of their host galaxies through a…
