The dust-scattered X-ray halo around Swift GRB 050724
S. Vaughan, R. Willingale, P. Romano +12
This paper discusses the X-ray halo around the Swift gamma-ray burst GRB 050724 (z=0.258), detected by the Swift X-Ray Telescope. The halo, which forms a ring around the fading X-r…
A refined position catalog of the Swift XRT afterglows
A. Moretti, M. Perri, M. Capalbi +22
We present a catalogue of refined positions of 68 gamma ray burst (GRB) afterglows observed by the Swift X-ray Telescope (XRT) from the launch up to 2005 Oct 16. This is a result o…
Swift XRT Observations of the Afterglow of GRB 050319
G. Cusumano, V. Mangano, L. Angelini +27
Swift discovered the high redshift GRB 050319 with the Burst Alert Telescope and began observing with its narrow field instruments only 225 s after the burst onset. The afterglow X…
Swift XRT Observations of the Breaking X-ray Afterglow of GRB 050318
M. Perri, P. Giommi, M. Capalbi +26
We report the results of Swift X-Ray Telescope (XRT) observations of GRB 050318. This event triggered the Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) aboard Swift and was followed-up with XRT and…
Bright X-ray Flares in Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows
D. N. Burrows, P. Romano, A. Falcone +31
Gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows have provided important clues to the nature of these massive explosive events, providing direct information on the nearby environment and indirect…
GRB050223: A faint Gamma-Ray Burst discovered by Swift
K. L. Page, E. Rol, A. J. Levan +16
GRB050223 was discovered by the Swift Gamma-Ray Burst Explorer on 23 February 2005 and was the first Gamma-Ray Burst to be observed by both Swift and XMM-Newton. At the time of wri…
