A photometric redshift of <i>z</i> = 1.8$^{\sf{+0.4}}_{\sf{-0.3}}$ for the <i>AGILE</i> GRB 080514B
The AGILE gamma-ray burst GRB 080514B is the first detected to have emission above 30 MeV and an optical afterglow. However, no spectroscopic redshift for this burst is known. We report on our ground-based optical/NIR and millimeter follow-up observations of this event at several observatories, including the multi-channel imager GROND …
