The X-ray counterpart to the gravitational wave event GW 170817

E. Troja, L. Piro, H. van Eerten +31

A long-standing paradigm in astrophysics is that collisions- or mergers- of two neutron stars (NSs) form highly relativistic and collimated outflows (jets) powering gamma-ray burst…

The host galaxy of the short GRB111117A at : impact on the short GRB redshift distribution and progenitor channels

J. Selsing, T. Krühler, D. Malesani +26

It is notoriously difficult to localize short -ray bursts (sGRBs) and their hosts to measure their redshifts. These measurements, however, are critical to constrain the nature o…

GRB 161219B / SN 2016jca: A low-redshift gamma-ray burst supernova powered by radioactive heating

Z. Cano, L. Izzo, A. de Ugarte Postigo +22

Since the first discovery of a broad-lined type Ic supernova (SN) with a long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB) in 1998, fewer than fifty gamma-ray burst supernovae (GRB-SNe) have bee…

The MUSE view of the host galaxy of GRB 100316D

L. Izzo, C. C. Thöne, S. Schulze +23

The low distance, , of GRB 100316D and its association with SN 2010bh represent two important motivations for studying this host galaxy and the GRB's immediate environmen…

The properties of GRB 120923A at a spectroscopic redshift of z=7.8

N. R. Tanvir, T. Laskar, A. J. Levan +37

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are powerful probes of early stars and galaxies, during and potentially even before the era of reionization. Although the number of GRBs identified at z>6 r…
