Scientific paper

We report ground-based and HST(+STIS) imaging of the GRB 020305 optical afterglow. The light curve and the spectral energy distribution of the afterglow might show evidence of a supernova (SN) component present ~ 15 days after the GRB, which could be explained by a nearby Ic SN. However, a SN 1998bw-like template does not yield a completely satisfactory simultaneous fit to the SED and the lightcurve. We discuss some possible reasons for this behaviour.
