We present an explanation for the unusual temporal feature of the GRB 030226 afterglow. The R-band afterglow of this burst faded as ~ t^{-1.2} in ~ 0.2 days after the burst, rebrightened during the period of ~ 0.2 - 0.5 days, and then…

The afterglow of GRB 081029 showed unusual behavior, with a significant rebrightening being observed at optical wavelength at about 3000 s after the burst. One possible explanation is that the rebrightening is resulted from energy…

The broadband afterglow of Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is usually believed to originate from the synchrotron radiation of electrons accelerated by the external shock of relativistic jets. Therefore, the jet structure should have a significant…

Optical afterglows from two-component jets under various configurations are investigated numerically. Generally, the light curve is characterized by a rapid rebrightening when the observer is off-axis with respect to the narrow component,…

We present broad-band radio observations of the afterglow of GRB000301C, spanning from 1.4 to 350 GHz for the period of 3 to 83 days after the burst. This radio data, in addition to measurements at the optical bands, suggest that the…

GRB 080503, detected by Swift, belongs to the class of bursts whose prompt phase consists of an initial short spike followed by a longer soft tail. It did not show any transition to a regular afterglow at the end of the prompt emission but…

We present an analysis of the unusual optical light curve of the gamma-ray burst GRB 081029, a long-soft burst with a redshift of z = 3.8479. We combine X-ray and optical observations from the Swift X-Ray Telescope and the Swift…

We investigate numerically the ability of three models (jet, structured outflow, energy injection) to accommodate the optical light-curve breaks observed in 10 GRB afterglows (980519, 990123, 990510, 991216, 000301c, 000926, 010222, 011211,…

Using two identical telescopes at widely separated longitudes, the ROTSE-III network observed decaying emission from the remarkably bright afterglow of GRB 030329. In this report we present observations covering 56% of the period from…

GRB 030329 is unique in many aspects. It has a very low redshift for a GRB, $z=0.1685$, and is therefore very bright and easy to monitor, making it the most well studied afterglow to date. It shows a supernova bump in the light curve, with…

Energy injection into the external shock system that generates the afterglow to a gamma-ray burst (GRB) can result in a re-brightening of the emission. Here we investigate the off-axis view of a re-brightened refreshed shock afterglow. We…

We present our centimeter wavelength (1.4, 2.3 and 4.8 GHz) light curves of the afterglow of GRB 030329, which were obtained with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope. Modeling the data according to a collimated afterglow results in a…

The 2-m robotic Liverpool Telescope (LT) reacted promptly to the high-redshift (z=4.048) gamma-ray burst GRB 060206. The afterglow was identified automatically and multicolor r'i'z' imaging was triggered without human intervention.…

Early rebrightenings at a post-burst time of 10^2 - 10^4 s have been observed in the afterglows of some gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). Unlike X-ray flares, these rebrightenings usually last for a relatively long period. The continuous energy…

We show that the re-brightening in the GRB 021004 optical afterglow light curve around ~ 0.1 day can be explained within the framework of the standard fireball model. The superposition of a forward and reverse shock emissions result in the…

GRB030329 displays one clear and, possibly, multiple less intense fast-rising ($\Delta t / t \sim 0.3$) jumps in its optical afterglow light curve. The decay rate of the optical light curve remains the same before and after the photon flux…

Multiple rebrightenings have been observed in the multiband afterglow of GRB 030329. Especially, a marked and quick rebrightening occurred at about t ~ 1.2 * 10^5 s. Energy injection from late and slow shells seems to be the best…

We have found that the conventional generic dynamical model for gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) cannot reproduce the Sedov solution in the non-relativistic limit. Based on our refined generic dynamical model, we investigate afterglows from jetted…

We present extensive optical and infrared photometry of the afterglow of gamma-ray burst (GRB) 030329 and its associated supernova (SN) 2003dh over the first two months after detection (2003 March 30-May 29 UT). Optical spectroscopy from a…

We present an analysis of the unusual optical light curve of the gamma-ray burst GRB~081029, which occurred at a redshift of z = 3.8479$. We combine X-ray and optical observations from the Swift X-Ray Telescope and the Swift…
