Andrew J. Levan,Nial R. Tanvir,Pall Jakobsson,Pall Jakobsson,Robert Chapman,Jens Hjorth,Robert S. Priddey,Johan P. U. Fynbo,K. Hurley,B. L. Jensen,R. Johnson,Javier Gorosabel,A. J. Castro-Tirado,Matt J. Jarvis,Darach Watson,Klaas Wiersema +15 more
TL;DR: Deep optical and infrared observations of the short duration GRB 050906 are presented and the constraints these limits place on the progenitor are discussed based on the expected optical signatures from both SGRs and merging compact object systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Infrared Spectroscopy of the Superluminal Galactic Source GRS 1915+105 during the 1994 September Outburst
TL;DR: In this paper, the K-band IR spectra of the superluminal Galactic source GRS 1915+105 were obtained on two different dates, and it was shown that the ionized regions in the new source are not related to the twin beams of energetic particles that are believed to be responsible for the observed radio lobes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Josep M. Trigo-Rodríguez,José M. Madiedo,Iwan P. Williams,A. J. Castro-Tirado,Jordi Llorca,Stanislav Vítek,Martin Jelínek +6 more
TL;DR: A very bright fireball called B´ (SPMN110708), with a maximum brightness of −18, was observed over much of Spain as well as parts of Portugal and France on 2008 July 11 at 21:17:39 UTC as discussed by the authors.
