Low-resolution Spectroscopy of Gamma-ray Burst Optical Afterglows: Biases in the Swift Sample and Characterization of the Absorbers

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a sample of 77 optical afterglows (OAs) of Swift detected gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) for which spectroscopic follow-up observations have been secured.
Journal ArticleDOI

No supernovae from two nearby long gamma ray bursts

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present observations of two nearby long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) that challenge this simple view, and demonstrate that no SN emission accompanied these longduration bursts, down to limits hundreds of times fainter than the archetypal SN 1998bw that accompanied GRB 980425, and faintter than any Type Ic SN ever observed.

A High-metallicity Host Environment for the Long-duration GRB 020819

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present spectroscopic observations of the host galaxy and explosion site of long-duration gamma-ray burst GRB 020819 and determine a metallicity for this host environment of log(O/H) + 12 = 9.0 {+-} 0.1.
