On the stellar luminosity of the universe
Ralph A. M. J. Wijers
It has been noted at times that the rate of energy release in the most violent explosive events in the Universe, such as supernovae and gamma-ray bursts, rivals the stellar luminos…
The redshift distribution of gamma-ray bursts revisited
Priyamvada Natarajan, Badr Albanna, Jens Hjorth +3
In this letter, we calculate the redshift distribution of gamma-ray bursts assuming that they trace (i) the globally averaged star formation rate or (ii) the average metallicity in…
Late-epoch optical and near-infrared observations of the GRB000911 afterglow and its host galaxy
N. Masetti, E. Palazzi, E. Pian +28
We present the results of an optical and near-infrared (NIR) monitoring campaign of the counterpart of Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) 000911, located at redshift z=1.06, from 5 days to more…
The line-of-sight towards GRB 030429 at z = 2.66: Probing the matter at stellar, galactic and intergalactic scales
P. Jakobsson, J. Hjorth, J. P. U. Fynbo +21
We report the discovery of the optical afterglow (OA) of the long-duration gamma-ray burst GRB 030429, and present a comprehensive optical/near-infrared dataset used to probe the m…
Evolution of the polarization of the optical afterglow of the gamma-ray burst GRB 030329
J. Greiner, S. Klose, K. Reinsch +23
We report 31 polarimetric observations of the afterglow of GRB 030329 with high signal-to-noise and high sampling frequency. We establish the polarization light curve, detect susta…
On Fossil Disk Models of Anomalous X-Ray Pulsars
G. J. Francischelli, R. A. M. J. Wijers
Currently, two competing models are invoked in order to explain the observable properties of Anomalous X-ray Pulsars (AXPs). One model assumes that AXP emission is powered by a str…
