Abstract

Optical and near-infrared observations of the gamma-ray burst GRB 031203, at z = 0.1055, are reported. A very faint afterglow is detected superposed onto the host galaxy in our first infrared JHK observations, carried out ~9 hr after the burst. Subsequently, a rebrightening is detected in all bands,...
