The delay of shock breakout due to circumstellar material seen in most Type II Supernovae
F. Förster, T. J. Moriya, J. C. Maureira +35
Type II supernovae (SNe) originate from the explosion of hydrogen-rich supergiant massive stars. Their first electromagnetic signature is the shock breakout, a short-lived phenomen…
The luminous host galaxy, faint supernova and rapid afterglow rebrightening of GRB 100418A
A. de Ugarte Postigo, C. C. Thoene, K. Bensch +35
Long gamma-ray bursts give us the chance to study both their extreme physics and the star-forming galaxies in which they form. GRB 100418A, at a z = 0.6239, had a bright optical an…
Highly-ionized metals as probes of the circumburst gas in the natal regions of gamma-ray bursts
K. E. Heintz, D. Watson, P. Jakobsson +18
We present here a survey of high-ionization absorption lines in the afterglow spectra of long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) obtained with the VLT/X-shooter spectrograph. Our mai…
