Discovery of a redshifted Iron K-line in the X-ray afterglow of GRB 000214

L. A. Antonelli, L. Piro, M. Vietri +13

We report the detection (3 sigma significance level) of a strong iron emission line in the X-ray spectrum of the afterglow of GRB 000214 (``Valentine's Day Burst'') observed by Bep…

VLT spectroscopy of GRB 990510 and GRB 990712; probing the faint and bright end of the GRB host galaxy population

P. M. Vreeswijk, A. Fruchter, L. Kaper +15

We present time-resolved optical spectroscopy of the afterglows of the gamma-ray bursts GRB 990510 and GRB 990712. Through the identification of several absorption lines in the fir…
