Detection of a very bright optical flare from a gamma-ray burst at redshift 6.29

Detection of a very bright optical flare from a gamma-ray burst at redshift 6.29

In this letter we discuss the flux and the behavior of the bright optical flare emission detected by the 25 cm TAROT robotic telescope during the prompt high-energy emission and the early afterglow. We combine our data with simultaneous observations performed in X-rays and we analyze the broad-band spectrum. These …
