Abstract (from CDS):

Using the 2.56-m Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) on La Palma we have observed most of the known optical afterglows to gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). We here briefly report on the discoveries of the optical afterglows of two recent SAX GRBs (GRB 980519 and GRB 980613) and the detection of their host galaxies. GRB 980519 was bright upon discovery (R≃20) and occurred in a faint (R≃26) galaxy whereas GRB 980613 was faint upon discovery (R≃23) but occurred in a bright galaxy
