[Abridged] The study of short-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) experienced a complete revolution in recent years thanks to the discovery of the first afterglows and host galaxies in May 2005. These observations demonstrated that short GRBs…

Aims. With an observed and rest-frame duration of < 2s and < 0.5s, respectively, GRB090426 could be classified as a short GRB. The prompt detection, both from space and ground-based telescopes, of a bright optical counterpart to this GRB…

Beginning with the $\gamma$-ray bursts GRB 970228 and GRB 970508, a standard model for the interpretation of GRB afterglows emerged involving synchrotron emission from a constant energy blast wave expanding into a constant density,…

We present deep HST imaging, as well as ground-based imaging and spectroscopy, of the optical afterglow associated with the long-duration gamma-ray burst GRB 990712 and its host galaxy. The data were obtained 48--123 days after the burst…

Context: The link between the duration of GRBs and the nature of their progenitors remains disputed. Short bursts (with durations of less than ~2 s) are less frequently observed, technically more difficult to localize, and exhibit…

Magnetars have been considered as progenitors of magnetar giant flares (MGFs) and fast radio bursts (FRBs). We present detailed studies on afterglow emissions caused by bursts that occur in their wind nebulae and surrounding baryonic…

A $\gamma$-ray transient, Swift J0644.5-5111, has been claimed to be associated with FRB 131104. The $\gamma$-ray energy output is estimated as $E_\gamma \approx 5\times 10^{51}$\,erg at the nominal $z\approx 0.55$ redshift implied by the…

Short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) are among the most luminous explosions in the Universe and their origin still remains uncertain. Observational evidence favors the association with binary neutron star or neutron star-black hole (NS-BH) binary…

The low luminosity radio emission of the unusually faint GRB 031203 has been argued to support the idea of a class of intrinsically sub-energetic gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), currently comprising two members. While low energy GRBs probably…

Recently much work in studying Gamma-Ray Burst has been devoted to revealing the nature of outburst mechanism and studies of GRB afterglows. These issues have also been closely followed by the quest for identifying GRB progenitors. In this…

Strong optical and near-infrared (NIR) flares were discovered in the afterglow of GRB 080129. Their temporal behaviors, the sudden emergence and the quick disappearance, are rather similar to that of many X-ray flares (for instance, the…

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) display a bimodal duration distribution, with a separation between the short- and long-duration bursts at about 2 sec. The progenitors of long GRBs have been identified as massive stars based on their association…

The knowledge of the class of short Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), characterised by a duration of the gamma-ray emission $\leq 2$ s, experienced an impressive boost in the last decade. In particular, the discovery of short GRB afterglows in 2005…

We report on the photometric, spectroscopic and polarimetric, monitoring of the optical afterglow of Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) 030328 detected by HETE-2. Photometry, collected at 7 different telescopes, shows that a smoothly broken powerlaw…

Aims: With this paper we want to investigate the highly variable afterglow light curve and environment of gamma-ray burst (GRB) 060526 at $z=3.221$. Methods: We present one of the largest photometric datasets ever obtained for a GRB…

The rich and complex data obtained from multi-wavelength observations of SHB170817A, the short hard gamma ray burst (SHB) associated with GW170817 --the first neutron stars merger event detected in gravitational waves (GWs)-- are analyzed…

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are mysterious radio transients with uncertain origins and environments. Recent studies suggest that some active FRBs may originate from compact objects in binary systems. In this work, we develop a unified…

CCD Johnsons BV and Cousins RI photometric magnitudes are determined for 20 stars in the field of GRB 000926. Using them as calibrators, B and R band light curves are constructed of the afterglow from ours and other published observations.…

Cosmic gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been firmly established as one of the most powerful phenomena in the Universe, releasing electromagnetic energy approaching the rest-mass energy of a neutron star in a few seconds. The two currently…

Following the historical observations of GW170817 and its multi-wavelength afterglow, more radio afterglows from neutron star mergers are expected in the future as counterparts to gravitational wave inspiral signals. We wish to describe…
