Are long gamma-ray bursts biased tracers of star formation? Clues from the host galaxies of the <i>Swift</i>/BAT6 complete sample of bright LGRBs

Are long gamma-ray bursts biased tracers of star formation? Clues from the host galaxies of the <i>Swift</i>/BAT6 complete sample of bright LGRBs

Aims . Long gamma-ray bursts (LGRB) have been proposed as promising tracers of star formation owing to their association with the core-collapse of massive stars. Nonetheless, previous studies we carried out at z &lt; 1 support the hypothesis that the conditions necessary for the progenitor star to produce an LGRB …
