GRB 080503: A Very Early Blue Kilonova and an Adjacent Nonthermal Radiation Component
The temporal behavior of the very dim optical afterglow of GRB 080503 is at odds with the regular forward shock afterglow model and a sole kilonova component responsible for optical emission has been speculated in some literature. Here we analyze the optical afterglow data available in archive and c...
