Discovery and identification of the very high redshift afterglow of GRB 050904
J. Haislip, M. Nysewander, D. Reichart +39
In 2000, Lamb and Reichart predicted that gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and their afterglows occur in sufficient numbers and at sufficient brightnesses at very high redshifts (z > 5) to…
The line-of-sight towards GRB 030429 at z = 2.66: Probing the matter at stellar, galactic and intergalactic scales
P. Jakobsson, J. Hjorth, J. P. U. Fynbo +21
We report the discovery of the optical afterglow (OA) of the long-duration gamma-ray burst GRB 030429, and present a comprehensive optical/near-infrared dataset used to probe the m…
On the constraining observations of the dark GRB 001109 and the properties of a z = 0.398 radio selected starburst galaxy contained in its error box
J. M. Castro Cerón, J. Gorosabel, A. J. Castro-Tirado +24
We present optical and NIR (near infrared) follow up observations of the GRB 001109 from 1 to 300 days after the burst. No transient emission was found at these wavelengths within…
A near-infrared survey of the N49 region around the Soft Gamma-Ray Repeater 0526-66
S. Klose, A. A. Henden, U. Geppert +7
We report the results of a deep near-infrared survey with VLT/ISAAC of the environment of the supernova remnant N49 in the Large Magellanic Cloud, which contains the soft gamma-ray…
The host of GRB 030323 at z=3.372: a very high column density DLA system with a low metallicity
P. M. Vreeswijk, S. L. Ellison, C. Ledoux +29
We present photometry and spectroscopy of the afterglow of GRB 030323. VLT spectra of the afterglow show damped Lya (DLA) absorption and low- and high-ionization lines at a redshif…
The polarization evolution of the optical afterglow of GRB 030329
J. Greiner, S. Klose, K. Reinsch +23
We report 31 polarimetric observations of the afterglow of GRB 030329 with high signal-to-noise and high sampling frequency. The data imply that the afterglow magnetic field has sm…
