TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported evidence for a very energetic supernova (a hypernova), temporally and spatially coincident with a gamma-ray burst at redshift z=0.1685.
Abstract: Over the past five years evidence has mounted that long-duration (greater than 2s) gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), the most brilliant of all astronomical explosions, signal the collapse of massive stars in our Universe. This evidence, originally based on the probable association of one unusual GRB with a supernova, now includes the association of GRBs with regions of massive star-formation in distant galaxies, tantalizing evidence of supernova-like light-curve 'bumps' in the optical afterglows of several bursts, and lines of freshly synthesized elements in the spectra of a few X-ray afterglows. These observations support, but do not yet conclusively validate, models based upon the deaths of massive stars, presumably associated with core collapse. Here we report evidence for a very energetic supernova (a hypernova), temporally and spatially coincident with a GRB at redshift z=0.1685. The timing of the supernova indicates that it exploded within a few days of the GRB, strongly suggesting that core-collapse events can give rise to GRBs. Amongst the GRB central engine models proposed to-date, the properties of this supernova thus favour the collapsar model.

TL;DR: The HI Nearby Galaxy Survey (THINGS) as discussed by the authors is a high spectral (≤52kms −1 ) and spatial (∼ 6 ′′ ) resolution survey of HI emission in 34 nearby galaxies obtained using the NRAO Very Large Array (VLA).
Abstract: We present “The HI Nearby Galaxy Survey (THINGS)”, a high spectral (≤52kms −1 ) and spatial (∼ 6 ′′ ) resolution survey of HI emission in 34 nearby galaxies obtained using the NRAO Very Large Array (VLA) The overarching scientific goal of THINGS is to investigate fundamental characteristics of the interstellar medium (ISM) related to galaxy morphology, star formation and mass distribution across the Hubble sequence Unique characteristics of the THINGS database are the homogeneous sensitivity as well as spatial and velocity resolution of the HI data which is at the limit of what can be achieved with the VLA for a significant number of galaxies A sample of 34 objects at distances 2 < D <15 Mpc (resulting in linear resolutions of ∼100 to 500pc) are targeted in THINGS, covering a wide range of star formation rates (∼ 10 −3 to 6 M⊙ yr −1 ), total HI masses MHI (001 to 14×10 9 M⊙), absolute luminosities MB (–115 to –217mag) and metallicities (75 to 92 in units of 12+log[O/H]) We describe the setup of the VLA observations, the data reduction procedures and the creation of the final THINGS data products We present an atlas of the integrated HI maps, the velocity fields, the second moment (velocity dispersion) maps and individual channel maps of each THINGS galaxy The THINGS data products are made publicly available through a dedicated webpage Accompanying THINGS papers address issues such as the small–scale structure of the ISM, the (dark) matter distribution in THINGS galaxies, and the processes leading to star formation Subject headings: surveys — galaxies: structure — galaxies: ISM — ISM: general — ISM: atoms — radio lines: galaxies
