    • Broadband observations of the naked-eye gamma-ray burst GRB 080319B 

      Racusin, J.L.; Karpov, S.V.; Sokolowski, M.; Granot, J. (2008)
      Long duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) release copious amounts of energy across the entire electromagnetic spectrum, and so provide a window into the process of black hole formation from the collapse of a massive star. Over ...
    • Detection of high-energy gamma-ray emission during the X-ray flaring activity in GRB100728A

(2011)
      We present the simultaneous Swift and Fermi observations of the bright GRB 100728A and its afterglow. The early X-ray emission is dominated by a vigorous flaring activity continuing until 1 ks after the burst. In the same ...
    • 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 ...
