The Highly Energetic Expansion of SN2010bh Associated with GRB 100316D
Filomena Bufano, Elena Pian, Jesper Sollerman +50
We present the spectroscopic and photometric evolution of the nearby (z = 0.059) spectroscopically confirmed type Ic supernova, SN 2010bh, associated with the soft, long-duration g…
Panchromatic observations of the textbook GRB 110205A: constraining physical mechanisms of prompt emission and afterglow
W. Zheng, R. F. Shen, T. Sakamoto +56
We present a comprehensive analysis of a bright, long duration (T90 ~ 257 s) GRB 110205A at redshift z= 2.22. The optical prompt emission was detected by Swift/UVOT, ROTSE-IIIb and…
X-shooter, the new wide band intermediate resolution spectrograph at the ESO Very Large Telescope
Joel Vernet, H. Dekker, S. D'Odorico +87
X-shooter is the first 2nd generation instrument of the ESO Very Large Telescope(VLT). It is a very efficient, single-target, intermediate-resolution spectrograph that was installe…
Pre-ALMA observations of GRBs in the mm/submm range
A. de Ugarte Postigo, A. Lundgren, S. Martín +24
GRBs generate an afterglow emission that can be detected from radio to X-rays during days, or even weeks after the initial explosion. The peak of this emission crosses the mm/submm…
GRB 070125 and the environments of spectral-line poor afterglow absorbers
A. De Cia, R. L. C. Starling, K. Wiersema +9
GRB 070125 is among the most energetic bursts detected and the most extensively observed so far. Nevertheless, unresolved issues are still open in the literature on the physics of…
An extremely luminous panchromatic outburst from the nucleus of a distant galaxy
A. J. Levan, N. R. Tanvir, S. B. Cenko +58
Variable X-ray and gamma-ray emission is characteristic of the most extreme physical processes in the Universe, and studying the sources of these energetic photons has been a major…
The extinction curves of star-forming regions from z=0.1 to 6.7 using GRB afterglow spectroscopy
Tayyaba Zafar, Darach Watson, Johan P. U. Fynbo +3
GRB afterglows are well suited to extinction studies due to their brightness, simple power-law spectra and the occurrence of GRBs in distant star forming galaxies. In this paper we…
Variable Ly alpha sheds light on the environment surrounding GRB 090426
C. C. Thöne, S. Campana, D. Lazzati +16
Long duration gamma-ray bursts are commonly associated with the deaths of massive stars. Spectroscopic studies using the afterglow as a light source provide a unique opportunity to…
