مستخلص: Multiwavelengthp observations of a GRB detected by INTEGRAL (GRB 030227) revealed a dim optical afterglow (OA) that would not have been detected by many previous searches due to its faintess (R∼ 23). This OA was seen to decline following a power law decay with index α = -0.95 ± 0.16. The spectral index β of the OA yields -1.32 ± 0.15, with the intrinsec absorption consistent with zero. These values may be explained by a relativistic expansion of a fireball in an homogeneous medium. We also find evidence for inverse Compton scattering in X-rays. A possible break is detected at ∼ 1.5 days. © 2004 American Institute of Physics [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
