Probing a GRB progenitor at a redshift of z=2: a comprehensive observing campaign of the afterglow of GRB 030226
S. Klose, J. Greiner, A. Rau +38
We report results from a comprehensive follow-up observing campaign of the afterglow of GRB 030226, including VLT spectroscopy, VLT polarimetry, and Chandra X-ray observations. In…
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…
The submm properties of GRB host galaxies
N. R. Tanvir, V. E. Barnard, A. W. Blain +8
Long duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) accompany the deaths of some massive stars and hence, since massive stars are short lived, are a tracer of star formation activity. Given that…
On the Afterglow of the X-Ray Flash of July 23 2003: Photometric evidence for an off-axis Gamma-Ray Burst with an associated Supernova?
J. P. U. Fynbo, J. Sollerman, J. Hjorth +31
We present optical and near-infrared follow-up observations of the X-Ray Flash (XRF) of July 23 2003. Our observations in the R-band cover the temporal range from 4.2 h to 64 days…
GRB 020410: A Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglow Discovered by its Supernova Light
A. Levan, P. Nugent, A. Fruchter +19
We present the discovery and monitoring of the optical transient (OT) associated with GRB 020410. The fading OT was found by Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations taken 28 and…
The host of GRB 030323 at z=3.372: a very high column density DLA system with a low metallicity
P. M. Vreeswijk, S. L. Ellison, C. Ledoux +29
We present photometry and spectroscopy of the afterglow of GRB 030323. VLT spectra of the afterglow show damped Lya (DLA) absorption and low- and high-ionization lines at a redshif…
Chandra Observations of the X-ray Environs of SN 1998bw/GRB 980425
C. Kouveliotou, S. E. Woosley, S. K. Patel +8
(Abrigded) We report X-ray studies of the environs of SN 1998bw and GRB 980425 using the Chandra X-Ray Observatory 1281 days after the GRB. Combining our observation of the superno…
