The power-law decay of the X-ray emission of GRB afterglows 050319, 050401, 050607, 050713A, 050802 and 050922C exhibits a steepening at about 1--4 hours after the burst which, surprisingly, is not accompanied by a break in the optical…
We numerically simulate the gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglow emission with a one-zone time-dependent code. The temporal evolutions of the decelerating shocked shell and energy distributions of electrons and photons are consistently…
In this paper, within the popular internal shock scenario of GRBs, we calculate the early optical afterglow lightcurves of a neutron-fed GRB fireball for different assumed neutron fractions in the fireball and for both ISM- and…
GRB 050730 is a long duration high-redshift burst (z=3.967) discovered by Swift. The afterglow shows variability and is well monitored over a wide wavelength range. We present comprehensive temporal and spectral analysis of the afterglow of…
The detection of an afterglow, following a gamma-ray burst (GRB), can be described reasonably well by synchrotron emission from a relativistic spherical expanding blast wave, driven by an expanding fireball. We perform detailed calculations…
We examine a sample of 21 gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglow light curves at radio frequencies, and compare them to the X-ray and/or optical properties of the afterglows and to the predictions of the standard jet/fireball model. Our sample…
Short-duration Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) (\leq 2{\rm s}) have remained a mystery due to the lack of afterglow detection until recently. The models to interpret short GRBs invoke distinct progenitor scenarios. Here we present a generic…
We present comprehensive photometric R-band observations of the fading optical afterglow of the X-Ray Flash XRF050824, from 11 minutes to 104 days after the burst. The R-band lightcurve of the afterglow resembles the lightcurves of long…
GRB{980519} is characterized by its rapidly declining optical and X-ray afterglows. Explanations of this behavior include models invoking a dense medium environment which makes the shock wave evolve quickly into the sub-relativistic phase,…
GRB021211 was first detected by HETE II and its early afterglow has been observed. There is a break in its afterglow light curve at about 12 minutes after the bursts, before the break the optical flux decays with a power-law index of about…
We investigate the effect that the structure of GRB jets has on the afterglow light curves for observers located at different viewing angles, $\theta_{obs}$, from the jet symmetry axis. The largest uncertainty in the jet dynamics is the…
The 1-m telescope at Lulin Observatory and the 0.76-m Katzman Automatic Imaging Telescope at Lick Observatory were used to observe the optical afterglow of the short-duration (1.2--1.5 s) gamma-ray burst (GRB) 040924. This object has a soft…
GRB160203A is a high redshift long gamma-ray burst presenting a collection of unusual features in the afterglow light curve. We study its optical and X-ray data. We find this event to occur within a constant density medium during the first…
Context. Multi-wavelength observations of gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows provide important information about the activity of their central engines and their environments. In particular, the short timescale variability, such as bumps…
We derive a relation between the flux density $F_{\nu,j}$ at the light-curve break of a gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglow and the break time $t_{j}$. The break is due to the transition from the spherical-like to jet-like evolution of the…
In order to constrain the broad-band spectral energy distribution of the afterglow of GRB 100621A, dedicated observations were performed in the optical/near-infrared with the 7-channel "Gamma-Ray Burst Optical and Near-infrared Detector"…
The CCD magnitudes in Cousins R and I photometric passbands are determined for GRB 991216 and GRB 991208 afterglows respectively about 1 and about 3 day after trigger of the corresponding gamma-ray bursts. Light curves of the afterglow…
We discuss the afterglows from the evolution of both spherical and anisotropic fireballs decelerating in an inhomogeneous external medium. We consider both the radiative and adiabatic evolution regimes, and analyze the physical conditions…
We present a detailed multi-wavelength afterglow study of the short GRB 250704B, extensively monitored in optical and near-infrared bands. Its afterglow displays an unusually long-duration plateau followed by an achromatic break and a steep…
Assuming an adiabatic evolution of a Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) remnant interacting with an external medium, we calculate the injection, cooling, and absorption break frequencies, and the afterglow flux for plausible orderings of the break and…
