Circular polarization in the optical afterglow of GRB 121024A
K. Wiersema, S. Covino, K. Toma +37
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are most probably powered by collimated relativistic outflows (jets) from accreting black holes at cosmological distances. Bright afterglows are produced wh…
The mysterious optical afterglow spectrum of GRB140506A at z=0.889
J. P. U. Fynbo, T. Krühler, K. Leighly +40
Context. Gamma-ray burst (GRBs) afterglows probe sightlines to star-forming regions in distant star-forming galaxies. Here we present a study of the peculiar afterglow spectrum of…
The warm, the excited, and the molecular gas: GRB 121024A shining through its star-forming galaxy
M. Friis, A. De Cia, T. Krühler +28
We present the first reported case of the simultaneous metallicity determination of a gamma-ray burst (GRB) host galaxy, from both afterglow absorption lines as well as strong emis…
Optical Properties of (162173) 1999 JU3: In Preparation for the JAXA Hayabusa 2 Sample Return Mission
Masateru Ishiguro, Daisuke Kuroda, Sunao Hasegawa +31
We investigated the magnitude-phase relation of (162173) 1999 JU3, a target asteroid for the JAXA Hayabusa 2 sample return mission. We initially employed the international Astronom…
A Trio of GRB-SNe: GRB 120729A, GRB 130215A / SN 2013ez and GRB 130831A / SN 2013fu
Z. Cano, A. de Ugarte Postigo, A. Pozanenko +62
We present optical and near-infrared (NIR) photometry for three gamma-ray burst supernovae (GRB-SNe): GRB 120729A, GRB 130215A / SN 2013ez and GRB 130831A / SN 2013fu. In the case…
