Abstract:
We present data and initial results from VLT/X-shooter emission-line
spectroscopy of 96 galaxies selected by long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs)
at 0.1<z<3.6, the largest sample of GRB host spectra available to
date. Most of our GRBs were detected by Swift and 76% are at 0.5<z<2.5
with a median zmed∼1.6.
Description:
Flux-calibrated VLT/X-shooter medium resolution spectra of GRB host
galaxies, selected to show emission lines. Wavelengths are in the
observed frame, in vacuum, and in a heliocentric reference frame.
Fluxes are in units of erg/s/cm2/Å and are all corrected for
Galactic foreground reddening according to Schlafly & Finkbeiner
(2011ApJ...737..103S 2011ApJ...737..103S). Fluxes are not corrected for host extinction or
slit losses. Some spectra are taken shortly after the GRB. In these
cases the continuum is dominated by the bright afterglow and not by
the stellar light of the host galaxy.
