The GRB 030328 host: Another case of a blue starburst galaxy
Abstract
We present for the first time the detection of the GRB 030328 host galaxy in four optical bands equivalent to UBRI. The host galaxy spectral energy distribution is consistent with a low extinction ( E(B - V) < 0.21) starburst galaxy. The restframe B-band magnitude of host is M B ∼ - 20.4.
