Abstract
More than 13 years after the discovery of the first afterglows, the nature of dark gamma-ray bursts (GRB) has still eluded explanation: while each long-duration GRB typically has an X-ray afterglow, optical/NIR emission is only seen for 40-60% of those. Here we use the afterglow detection statistics of the systematic follow-up observations performed with GROND since mid-2007 in order to derive the fraction of ``dark bursts''. We find that the faint optical afterglow emission of ``dark bursts'' is due to a combination of two components: (i) moderate intrinsic extinction at moderate redshifts, and (ii) about 25% of bursts at redshift >5.
