Gamma Ray Bursts Flares detected and observed by the Swift Satellite
Guido Chincarini, Alberto Moretti, Patrizia Romano +11
The detection of flares with the Swift satellite triggered a lot of bservational and theoretical interest in these phenomena. As a consequence a large analysis effort started withi…
Swift multi-wavelength observations of the bright flaring burst GRB051117A
M. R. Goad, K. L. Page, O. Godet +13
We report on the temporal and spectral characteristics of the early X-ray emission from the Gamma Ray Burst 051117A as observed by Swift. The superb quality of the early X-ray ligh…
Redshift Filtering by Swift Apparent X-ray Column Density
Dirk Grupe, John A. Nousek, Daniel E. vanden Berk +5
We remark on the utility of an observational relation between the absorption column density in excess of the Galactic absorption column density, $ΔN_{\rm H} = N_{\rm H, fit} - N_{\…
Exploring Broadband GRB Behavior During gamma-ray Emission
S. A. Yost, H. F. Swan, E. S. Rykoff +44
The robotic ROTSE-III telescope network detected prompt optical emission contemporaneous with the gamma-ray emission of Swift events GRB051109A and GRB051111. Both datasets have co…
Swift and XMM-Newton Observations of the Extraordinary GRB 060729: An afterglow with a more than 100 days X-ray light curve
Dirk Grupe, Caryl Gronwall, Xiang-Yu Wang +8
We report the results of the Swift and XMM observations of the Swift-discovered long Gamma-Ray Burst GRB 060729 (=115s). The afterglow of this burst was exceptionally brigh…
Long-term monitoring of the X-ray afterglow of GRB 050408 with Swift/XRT
M. Capalbi, D. Malesani, M. Perri +20
We present observations of the X-ray afterglow of GRB 050408, a gamma-ray burst discovered by HETE-II. Swift began observing the field 42 min after the burst, performing follow-up…
