program GRB workshop

IAA Granada, March 17 - 21, 2014

Welcome

After 4 years of observations, the X-shooter GRB GTO group has gathered observations for about 60 GRB afterglows. A dozen papers on individual events have been published and another dozen are in preparation. The sample is now large enough to start producing papers on statistical studies. We are organizing this workshop to get together and start working on individual projects.

The aims of this meeting are:

  • Review the 4 years of collaboration
  • The sample: Characteristics, completeness, data access
  • Analysis techniques
  • Ongoing papers on individual events
  • Sample papers
  • Future: Observing proposals, coordination between observatories, etc.

The meeting will be held at the IAA in Granada, Spain, between March 17 and 21 2014.

Local organising committee:
Antonio de Ugarte Postigo (chair)
Christina Thöne (co-chair)
