Swift observations of the prompt X-ray emission and afterglow from GRB050126 and GRB050219A
M. R. Goad
We report on the temporal and spectral characteristics of the early X-ray emission from the Gamma Ray Bursts GRB050126 and GRB050219A as observed by Swift. The X-ray light-curves o…
Evidence for intrinsic absorption in the Swift X-ray afterglows
S. Campana, P. Romano, S. Covino +29
Gamma-ray burst (GRB) progenitors are observationally linked to the death of massive stars. X-ray studies of the GRB afterglows can deepen our knowledge of the ionization status an…
The weak INTEGRAL bursts GRB040223 and GRB040624: an emerging population of dark afterglows
P. Filliatre, S. Covino, P. D'Avanzo +18
We report here gamma-ray, X-ray and near-infrared observations of GRB040223 along with gamma-ray and optical observations of GRB040624. GRB040223 was detected by INTEGRAL close to…
An origin for short g-ray bursts unassociated with current star formation
S. D. Barthelmy, G. Chincarini, D. N. Burrows +28
Two short (<2 s) g-ray bursts (GRBs) have recently been localized and fading afterglow counterparts detected. The combination of these two results left unclear the nature of the ho…
Swift observations of the X-ray bright GRB 050315
S. Vaughan, M. R. Goad, A. P. Beardmore +30
This paper discusses Swift observations of the gamma-ray burst GRB 050315 (z=1.949) from 80 s to 10 days after the onset of the burst. The X-ray light curve displayed a steep early…
GRB 050904 at redshift 6.3: observations of the oldest cosmic explosion after the Big Bang
G. Tagliaferri, L. A. Antonelli, G. Chincarini +10
We present optical and near-infrared observations of the afterglow of the gamma-ray burst GRB 050904. We derive a photometric redshift z = 6.3, estimated from the presence of the L…
