The two-component jet of GRB 080413B
R. Filgas, T. Kruehler, J. Greiner +16
The quick and precise localization of GRBs by the Swift telescope allows the early evolution of the afterglow light curve to be captured by ground-based telescopes. With GROND meas…
Photometric redshifts for GRB afterglows from GROND and Swift/UVOT
T. Krühler, P. Schady, J. Greiner +18
We present a framework to obtain photometric redshifts (photo-zs) for gamma-ray burst afterglows. Using multi-band photometry from GROND and Swift/UVOT, photo-zs are derived for fi…
The nature of "dark" gamma-ray bursts
J. Greiner, T. Krühler, S. Klose +11
Context: Thirteen years after the discovery of the first afterglows, the nature of dark gamma-ray bursts (GRB) still eludes explanation: while each ng-duration GRB typically has an…
A Statistical Comparison of the Optical/UV and X-ray Afterglows of Gamma-Ray Bursts using the Swift Ultra-violet Optical and X-ray Telescopes
S. R. Oates, M. J. Page, P. Schady +11
We present the systematic analysis of the UVOT and XRT light curves for a sample of 26 Swift Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). By comparing the optical/UV and X-ray light curves, we found t…
Probing the Transition Between the Synchrotron and Inverse-compton Spectral Components of 1ES 1959+650
E. Bottacini, M. Böttcher, P. Schady +5
1ES 1959+650 is one of the most remarkable high-peaked BL Lacertae objects (HBL). In 2002, it exhibited a TeV gamma-ray flare without a similar brightening of the synchrotron compo…
The Swift/Fermi GRB 080928 from 1 eV to 150 keV
A. Rossi, S. Schulze, S. Klose +28
We present the results of a comprehensive study of the gamma-ray burst 080928 and of its afterglow. GRB 080928 was a long burst detected by Swift/BAT and Fermi/GBM. It is one of th…
Suzaku Observations of Luminous Quasars: Revealing the Nature of High-Energy Blazar Emission in Quiescent States
LAT Collaboration, A. A. Abdo, F. Tavecchio +5
We present the results from the Suzaku X-ray observations of five flat-spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs), namely PKS0208-512, Q0827+243, PKS1127-145, PKS1510-089 and 3C 454.3. All the…
GRB 081008: from burst to afterglow and the transition phase in between
F. Yuan, P. Schady, J. L. Racusin +30
We present a multi-wavelength study of GRB 081008, at redshift 1.967, by Swift, ROTSE-III and GROND. Compared to other Swift GRBs, GRB 081008 has a typical gamma-ray isotropic equi…
