The unpolarized macronova associated with the gravitational wave event GW170817

S. Covino, K. Wiersema, Y. Z. Fan +37

The merger of two dense stellar remnants including at least one neutron star (NS) is predicted to produce gravitational waves (GWs) and short duration gamma ray bursts (GRBs). In t…

Colour variations in the GRB 120327A afterglow

A. Melandri, S. Covino, E. Zaninoni +42

We present a comprehensive temporal and spectral analysis of the long Swift GRB 120327A afterglow data to investigate the possible causes of the observed early time colour variatio…

Polarimetry and Photometry of Gamma-Ray Bursts with RINGO2

I. A. Steele, D. Kopac, D. M. Arnold +8

We present a catalog of early-time (~10^2-10^4s) photometry and polarimetry of all Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) optical afterglows observed with RINGO2 imaging polarimeter on the Liverpoo…

A Reverse Shock and Unusual Radio Properties in GRB 160625B

K. D. Alexander, T. Laskar, E. Berger +9

We present multi-wavelength observations and modeling of the exceptionally bright long -ray burst GRB 160625B. The optical and X-ray data are well-fit by synchrotron emission fr…

A Reverse Shock in GRB 160509A

Tanmoy Laskar, Kate D. Alexander, Edo Berger +12

We present the second multi-frequency radio detection of a reverse shock in a -ray burst. By combining our extensive radio observations of the Fermi-LAT GRB 160509A at $z = 1.17…

Limits on optical polarization during the prompt phase of GRB 140430A

D. Kopac, C. G. Mundell, J. Japelj +17

Gamma-ray burst GRB 140430A was detected by the Swift satellite and observed promptly with the imaging polarimeter RINGO3 mounted on the Liverpool Telescope, with observations begi…
