HST, blue or ultraviolet rest-frame images of GRB host galaxies

Fruchter+06

SN: proportional

to blue light

GRB:

concentrated at bluest regions

Massive O/B stars

Die early

In star-forming regions, molecular clouds

Need low metallicity gas

Follow blue light, general SF

But: avoid high-Z galaxies

SF, low-mass galaxies
