Swift Observations of GRB 050603: An afterglow with a steep late time decay slope

Dirk Grupe, Peter Brown, Jay Cummings +16

We report the results of Swift observations of the Gamma Ray Burst GRB 050603. With a V magnitude V=18.2 about 10 hours after the burst the optical afterglow was the brightest so f…
