Relativistic jet activity from the tidal disruption of a star by a massive black hole

TL;DR: Observations of a bright X-ray flare from the extragalactic transient Swift J164449.3+573451 conclude that they have captured the onset of relativistic jet activity from a supermassive black hole.

SN 2003lw and GRB 031203: a bright supernova for a faint gamma-ray burst

TL;DR: In this article, the gamma-ray burst GRB 031203 was detected in all bands, peaking in the R band about 18 rest-frame days after the burst and the rebrightening closely resembles the light curve of a supernova like SN 1998bw, assuming that the GRB and the SN went off almost simultaneously.

A complete sample of bright Swift Long Gamma-Ray Bursts: Sample presentation, Luminosity Function and evolution

TL;DR: In this article, a carefully selected sub-sample of Swift Long Gamma-ray Bursts (GRBs) that is complete in redshift was constructed by considering only bursts with favorable observing conditions for ground-based follow-up searches, that are bright in the 15-150 keV Swift/BAT band, with 1-s peak photon fluxes in excess to 2.6 ph s^-1 cm^-2.

A complete sample of bright swift long gamma-ray bursts. I. Sample presentation, luminosity function and evolution

TL;DR: In this paper, a carefully selected sub-sample of Swift long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) that is complete in redshift was constructed by considering only bursts with favorable observing conditions for ground-based follow-up searches, which are bright in the 15-150 keV Swift/BAT band, i.e., with 1-s peak photon fluxes in excess to 2.6 photons s{sup −1} cm{sup -2}.
