TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the evolution of the afterglow and the contribution of a possible supernova (SN) and three X-shooter spectra obtained during the first 60 h.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gamma-Ray Burst Arrival-Time Localizations: Simultaneous Observations by Ulysses, Pioneer Venus Orbiter, SIGMA, WATCH, and PHEBUS

TL;DR: In this paper, a triangulation of 15 gamma-ray bursts from Ulysses, PVO, and EURECA spacecraft is presented, which range in area from 0.9 to 530 arcminutes.

TL;DR: In this article, the X-ray and optical afterglow of GRB030227 was detected starting only 8 hours after the prompt gamma-ray emission, with a 0.2-10 keV flux decreasing as t^-1 from 1.3x10e-12 to 5x 10e-13 erg cm−2 s−1.
Journal ArticleDOI
GRB 091029: At the limit of the fireball scenario

Christie,Subo Dong,J. Elliott,Tim Natusch,A. Nicuesa Guelbenzu,A. Rau,Andrea Rossi,V. Sudilovsky,P. C. M. Yock +21 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors test the validity of the forward-shock model for gamma-ray burst afterglows using high-quality, broad-band afterglow data for GRB 091029, and propose a two-component outflow to explain almost totally decoupled light curves in the X-ray and optical/NIR domains.
