Gamma-Ray Bursts, Afterglow

Scientific paper

Gamma-ray bursts are one of the most energetic events in the universe. Even after 30 years from the first report, we have a number of unsolved issues on the nature of GRBs. On 2003 Mar. 29, an extremely bright GRB was detected, which has been received much attention from GRB researchers. Observations of its afterglow were performed all over the world. They provided some important clues for the nature of GRBs, in particular, the observational evidence of the relationship between GRBs and supernovae. In Japan, the observational condition for this GRB was so good that many observers, including amateur astronomers, succeeded in detecting the afterglow. Here we report on the light curve of the optical afterglow of this GRB.
