Abstract (from CDS):
Here we present the detailed analysis of its prompt gamma-ray emission, as observed with IBIS onboard INTEGRAL, and of the available X-ray afterglow data collected by X-Ray Telescope onboard Swift. We then present the late-time multiband near-infrared imaging data, collected at the Telescopio Nazionale Galileo (TNG) and the Canada–France–Hawaii Telescope (CFHT), that allowed us to identify the host galaxy of the GRB as an underluminous, irregular galaxy of ∼5 {x} 109 M☉ at best-fitting redshift of z= 0.31+0.54–0.26.
We model the broad-band prompt optical to gamma-ray emission of GRB 041219A within the internal shock model. We were able to reproduce the spectra and light curve invoking the synchrotron emission of relativistic electrons accelerated by a series of propagating shock waves inside a relativistic outflow. On the other hand, it is less easy to simultaneously reproduce the temporal and spectral properties of the infrared data.
