The unusual X-ray emission of the short Swift GRB 090515: Evidence for the formation of a magnetar?
A. Rowlinson, P. T. O'Brien, N. R. Tanvir +16
The majority of short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) are thought to originate from the merger of compact binary systems collapsing directly to form a black hole. However, it has been pro…
Discovery of the afterglow and host galaxy of the low redshift short GRB 080905A
A. Rowlinson, K. Wiersema, A. J. Levan +10
We present the discovery of short GRB 080905A, its optical afterglow and host galaxy. Initially discovered by Swift, our deep optical observations enabled the identification of a f…
Discovery of the nearby long, soft GRB 100316D with an associated supernova
R. L. C. Starling, K. Wiersema, A. J. Levan +43
We report the Swift discovery of nearby long, soft gamma-ray burst GRB 100316D, and the subsequent unveiling of its low redshift host galaxy and associated supernova. We derive the…
