Abstract

GRB 070125 was one of the brightest afterglows observed to date. We report on the characteristics of this burst, and focus on a well-resolved re-brightening episode observed by the Bok telescope about one day after the trigger. We conclude that the flare is indicative of an energy injection episode, increasing the flux by 56%.
