Making a Short Gamma-Ray Burst from a Long one: Implications for the Nature of GRB 060614

Bing Zhang, Bin-Bin Zhang, En-Wei Liang +3

The absence of a supernova accompanying the nearby long GRB 060614 poses a great puzzle about the progenitor of this event and challenges the current GRB classification scheme. Thi…

Panchromatic study of GRB 060124: from precursor to afterglow

P. Romano, S. Campana, G. Chincarini +35

We present observations of GRB 060124, the first event for which both the prompt and the afterglow emission could be observed simultaneously and in their entirety by the three Swif…

Testing the standard fireball model of GRBs using late X-ray afterglows measured by Swift

R. Willingale, P. T. O'Brien, J. P. Osborne +8

We show that all X-ray decay curves of GRBs measured by Swift can be fitted using one or two components both of which have exactly the same functional form comprised of an early fa…

Swift Discovery of Gamma-Ray Bursts without Jet Break Feature in their X-Ray Afterglows

G. Sato, R. Yamazaki, K. Ioka +16

We analyze Swift gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and X-ray afterglows for three GRBs with spectroscopic redshift determinations -- GRB 050401, XRF 050416a, and GRB 050525a. We find that th…

Extreme Properties Of GRB061007: A Highly Energetic Or A Highly Collimated Burst?

P. Schady, M. De Pasquale, M. J. Page +20

GRB061007 is the brightest gamma-ray burst (GRB) to be detected by Swift and is accompanied by an exceptionally luminous afterglow that had a V-band magnitude <11.1 at 80s after th…
