AT2023vfi/GRB230307A JWST spectral data set

Abstract:

This data set contains the two JWST NIRSpec spectra presented by Gillanders & Smartt (2025). These spectra have been carefully extracted and flux-calibrated to contemporaneous photometry. For full details of the reduction, see Gillanders & Smartt (2025) (linked below). If you utilise these spectra, you must cite Levan et al. (2024) in addition to Gillanders & Smartt (2025).
