Optical-NIR spectroscopy of the puzzling gamma-ray source 3FGL 1603.9-4903/PMN J1603-4904 with X-shooter

P. Goldoni, S. Pita, C. Boisson +6

The Fermi/LAT instrument has detected about two thousands Extragalactic High Energy (E > 100 MeV) gamma-ray sources. One of the brightest is 3FGL 1603.9-4903, associated to the rad…

GRB host galaxies with VLT/X-Shooter: properties at 0.8 < z < 1.3

S. Piranomonte, J. Japelj, S. D. Vergani +19

Long gamma-ray bursts (LGRBs) are associated with the death of massive stars. Their host galaxies therefore represent a unique class of objects tracing star formation across the ob…

Spectrophotometric analysis of GRB afterglow extinction curves with X-shooter

J. Japelj, S. Covino, A. Gomboc +21

In this work we use gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglow spectra observed with the VLT/X-shooter spectrograph to measure rest-frame extinction in GRB lines-of-sight by modeling the broa…
