AN r -PROCESS KILONOVA ASSOCIATED WITH THE SHORT-HARD GRB 130603B

We present ground-based optical and Hubble Space Telescope (HST) optical and near-IR observations of the short-hard GRB 130603B at z = 0.356, which demonstrate the presence of excess near-IR emission matching the expected brightness and color of an r-process powered transient (a "kilonova"...
