    • Detailed radio view on two stellar explosions and their host galaxy : XRF 080109/SN 2008D and SN 2007uy in NGC 2770 

      van der Horst, A.J.; Kamble, A.P.; Paragi, Z.; Sage, L.J.; Pal, S.; Taylor, G.B.; Kouveliotou, C.; Granot, J.; Ramirez-Ruiz, E.; Ishwara-Chandra, C.H.; Oosterloo, T.; Wijers, R.A.M.J.; Wiersema, K.; Strom, R.G.; Bhattacharya, D.; Rol, E.; Starling, R.L.; Curran, P.; Garrett, M.A. (2011)
      The galaxy NGC 2770 hosted two core-collapse supernova (SN) explosions, SN 2008D and SN 2007uy, within 10 days of each other and 9 years after the first SN of the same type, SN 1999eh, was found in that galaxy. In particular, ...

(2011)
      Variable x-ray and gamma-ray emission is characteristic of the most extreme physical processes in the universe. We present multiwavelength observations of a unique gamma-ray-selected transient detected by the Swift satellite, ...

    • Late-time observations of GRB 080319B: jet break, host galaxy and accompanying supernova 

      Tanvir, N.; Rol, E.; Levan, A.; Svensson, K.; Fruchter, A.S.; Granot, J.; O'Brien, P.T.; Wiersema, K.; Starling, R.L.; Jakobsson, P.; Fynbo, J.; Hjorth, J.; Curran, P.; van der Horst, A.J.; Kouveliotou, C.; Racusin, J.L.; Burrows, D.N.; Genet, F. (2010)
      The Swift-discovered GRB 080319B was by far the most distant source ever observed at naked-eye brightness, reaching a peak apparent magnitude of 5.3 at a redshift of z = 0.937. We present our late-time optical (Hubble Space ...
