Simultaneous optical/gamma-ray observations of GRB 121217's prompt emission
J. Elliott, H. -F. Yu, S. Schmidl +20
Since the advent of the Swift satellite it has been possible to obtain precise localisations of GRB positions of sub-arcsec accuracy within seconds, facilitating ground-based robot…
Prompt emission of GRB 121217A from gamma-rays to the NIR
J. Elliott, H. -F. Yu, S. Schmidl +20
The mechanism that causes the prompt-emission episode of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is still widely debated despite there being thousands of prompt detections. The favoured internal s…
Afterglow rebrightenings as a signature of a long-lasting central engine activity? The emblematic case of GRB 100814A
M. Nardini, J. Elliott, R. Filgas +12
In the past few years the number of well-sampled optical to NIR light curves of long Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) has greatly increased particularly due to simultaneous multi-band image…
The low-extinction afterglow in the solar-metallicity host galaxy of GRB 110918A
J. Elliott, T. Krühler, J. Greiner +21
Galaxies selected through long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) could be of fundamental importance when mapping the star formation history out to the highest redshifts. Before using them as…
The Afterglow of GRB 130427A from 1 to 10^16 GHz
D. A. Perley, S. B. Cenko, A. Corsi +31
We present multiwavelength observations of the afterglow of GRB 130427A, the brightest (in total fluence) gamma-ray burst of the past 29 years. Optical spectroscopy from Gemini-Nor…
The low-extinction afterglow in the solar-metallicity host galaxy of gamma-ray burst 110918A
J. Elliott, T. Krühler, J. Greiner +21
Metallicity is theoretically thought to be a fundamental driver in gamma-ray burst (GRB) explosions and energetics, but is still, even after more than a decade of extensive studies…
