The Optical Flare and Afterglow Light Curve of GRB 050904 at Redshift <i>z</i> = 6.29
GRB 050904 is very interesting, since it is by far the most distant gamma-ray burst event known to date (z = 6.29). It was reported that during the prompt high-energy emission phase, a very bright optical flare was detected that was temporally coincident with an X-ray flare. Here we use …
