Local Starburst Conditions and Formation of GRB 980425/SN 1998bw within a Collisional Ring
Abstract We present the first spatially resolved study of molecular gas in the vicinity of a gamma-ray burst (GRB), using CO(2−1) emission-line observations with the Atacama Large Millimetre Array at ∼50 pc scales. The host galaxy of GRB 980425 contains a ring of high column density H i gas, which …
