Earliest simultaneous multi-color optical observations of GRB 230328B: from 41 seconds to the host-galaxy identification

T. Komesh, A. Pozanenko, N. Pankov +36

We present a multiwavelength study of the long-duration gamma-ray burst GRB 230328B, combining prompt gamma-ray observations with exceptionally early simultaneous optical photometr…

Early-time optical spectral shape measurements of GRB 200925B

Zhavlonbek Abdullayev, Toktarkhan Komesh, Bruce Grossan +5

Optical broad-band spectral shape measurements of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are typically made starting an hour or more after the trigger event. With our automated, rapid-response sy…

A SiPM photon-counting readout system for Ultra-Fast Astronomy

Albert Wai Kit Lau, Yan Yan Chan, Mehdi Shafiee +2

Very little work has been done searching for astrophysical transient optical emission in the millisecond to nanosecond regime with significant sensitivity. We call this regime "Ult…
