Description
We investigate the prompt emission and the afterglow properties of
short-duration gamma-ray burst (sGRB) 130603B and another eight sGRB
events during 2012-2015, observed by several multiwavelength facilities
including the Gran Canarias Telescope 10.4 m telescope. Prompt emission
high energy data of the events were obtained by INTEGRAL-SPI-ACS,
Swift-BAT, and Fermi-GBM satellites. The prompt emission data by
INTEGRAL in the energy range of 0.1-10 MeV for sGRB 130603B, sGRB
140606A, sGRB 140930B, sGRB 141212A, and sGRB 151228A do not show any
signature of the extended emission or precursor activity and their
spectral and temporal properties are similar to those seen in case of
other short bursts. For sGRB 130603B, our new afterglow photometric data
constrain the pre-jet-break temporal decay due to denser temporal
coverage. For sGRB 130603B, the afterglow light curve, containing both
our new and previously published photometric data is broadly consistent
with the ISM afterglow model. Modeling of the host galaxies of sGRB
130603B and sGRB 141212A using the LePHARE software supports a scenario
in which the environment of the burst is undergoing moderate star
formation activity. From the inclusion of our late-time data for eight
other sGRBs we are able to: place tight constraints on the non-detection
of the afterglow, host galaxy, or any underlying `kilonova' emission.
Our late-time afterglow observations of the sGRB 170817A/GW170817 are
also discussed and compared with the sub-set of sGRBs.

Evolution of Galaxies
Galaxy evolution is a crucial topic in modern extragalactic astrophysics, linking cosmology to the Local Universe. Their study requires collecting statistically significant samples of galaxies of different luminosities at different distances. It implies the ability to observe faint objects using different techniques, and at different wavelengths
