Timing accuracy of the Swift X-Ray Telescope in WT mode
G. Cusumano, V. La Parola, M. Capalbi +8
The X-Ray Telescope (XRT) on board Swift was mainly designed to provide detailed position, timing and spectroscopic information on Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) afterglows. During the miss…
CC Sculptoris: A superhumping intermediate polar
P. A. Woudt, B. Warner, A. Gulbis +8
We present high speed optical, spectroscopic and Swift X-ray observations made during the dwarf nova superoutburst of CC Scl in November 2011. An orbital period of 1.383 h and supe…
A search for thermal X-ray signatures in Gamma-Ray Bursts I: Swift bursts with optical supernovae
R. L. C. Starling, K. L. Page, A. Pe'er +2
The X-ray spectra of Gamma-Ray Bursts can generally be described by an absorbed power law. The landmark discovery of thermal X-ray emission in addition to the power law in the unus…
GRB100814A as a member of the growing set of bursts with sudden optical rebrightening
Massimiliano De Pasquale, N. P. Kuin, S. Oates +22
We present the gamma-ray, X-ray, optical and radio data for GRB100814A. At the end of the slow decline phase of the X-ray and optical afterglow, a sudden and prominent rebrightenin…
The origin of the early time optical emission of Swift GRB 080310
O. M. Littlejohns, R. Willingale, P. T. O'Brien +28
We present broadband multi-wavelength observations of GRB 080310 at redshift z = 2.43. This burst was bright and long-lived, and unusual in having extensive optical and near IR fol…
