The optical identifcation of events with poorly defined locations: The case of the Fermi GBM GRB140801A
V. M. Lipunov, J. Gorosabel, M. V. Pruzhinskaya +50
We report the early discovery of the optical afterglow of gamma-ray burst (GRB) 140801A in the 137 deg 3- error-box of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM). MASTER is the…
The central engine of GRB 130831A and the energy breakdown of a relativistic explosion
M. De Pasquale, S. R. Oates, J. L. Racusin +37
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most luminous explosions in the universe, yet the nature and physical properties of their energy sources are far from understood. Very important clu…
The lightcurve of the macronova associated with the long-short burst GRB 060614
Zhi-Ping Jin, Xiang Li, Zach Cano +3
The {\it Swift}-detected GRB 060614 was a unique burst that straddles an imaginary divide between long- and short-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), and its physical origin has been…
GRB 140606B / iPTF14bfu: Detection of shock-breakout emission from a cosmological gamma-ray burst?
Z. Cano, A. de Ugarte Postigo, D. Perley +13
We present optical and near-infrared photometry of GRB~140606B (), and optical photometry and spectroscopy of its associated supernova (SN). The results of our modelling i…
GRB hosts through cosmic time - VLT/X-Shooter emission-line spectroscopy of 96 GRB-selected galaxies at 0.1 < z < 3.6
T. Krühler, D. Malesani, J. P. U. Fynbo +41
[Abridged] We present data and initial results from VLT/X-Shooter emission-line spectroscopy of 96 GRB-selected galaxies at 0.1<z<3.6, the largest sample of GRB host spectroscopy a…
Spectrophotometric analysis of GRB afterglow extinction curves with X-shooter
J. Japelj, S. Covino, A. Gomboc +21
In this work we use gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglow spectra observed with the VLT/X-shooter spectrograph to measure rest-frame extinction in GRB lines-of-sight by modeling the broa…
