Robust photometric redshift determinations of gamma-ray burst afterglows at z greater than or similar to 2

Robust photometric redshift determinations of gamma-ray burst afterglows at z greater than or similar to 2

Context. Theory suggests that about 10% of Swift-detected gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) will originate at redshifts, z, greater than 5 yeta number of high redshift candidates may be left unconfirmed due to the lack of measured redshifts.Aims. Here we introduce our code, GRBz, a method of simultaneous mult...
