A NICMOS search for obscured Supernovae in starburst galaxies
G. Cresci, F. Mannucci, M. Della Valle +1
The detection of obscured supernovae (SNe) in near-infrared monitoring campaigns of starburst galaxies has shown that a significant fraction of SNe is missed by optical surveys. Ho…
An enigmatic long-lasting gamma-ray burst not accompanied by a bright supernova
M. Della Valle, G. Chincarini, N. Panagia +14
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are short, intense flashes of soft gamma-rays coming from the distant Universe. Long-duration GRBs (those lasting more than ~2 s) are believed to originate…
Supernova and GRB connection: Observations and Questions
Massimo Della Valle
We review the observational status of the supernova/gamma-ray burst connection. Present data suggest that SNe associated with GRBs form a heterogeneous class of objects including b…
The frontier of darkness: the cases of GRB 040223, GRB 040422, GRB 040624
P. D'Avanzo, P. Filliatre, P. Goldoni +23
Understanding the reasons for the faintness of the optical/near-infrared afterglows of the so-called dark bursts is essential to assess whether they form a subclass of GRBs, and he…
