Swift and XMM observations of the dark GRB 050326

A. Moretti, A. De Luca, D. Malesani +30

We present Swift and XMM observations of GRB 050326, detected by Swift-BAT. The fluence was 7.7x10^-6 erg cm^-2 (20-150 keV), and its spectrum was hard, with a power law photon ind…

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…

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 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…
