We reanalyzed the afterglow of GRB 050904 at z=6.3 at those epochs where the best spectral coverage is available in the optical/near-IR range (UV rest frame), namely at 0.47, 1.25, and 3.4 days after the trigger, by fitting the simultaneous optical/near-IR and X-ray SED. | We reanalyzed the afterglow of GRB 050904 at z=6.3 at those epochs where the best spectral coverage is available in the optical/near-IR range (UV rest frame), namely at 0.47, 1.25, and 3.4 days after the trigger, by fitting the simultaneous optical/near-IR and X-ray SED. |
In this work, we exploited the recent reanalysis done by ? on Z-band data, which are the most sensitive to dust reddening for this burst. | In this work, we exploited the recent reanalysis done by \cite{Zafar2010} on Z-band data, which are the most sensitive to dust reddening for this burst. |
