Abstract

In this study we present optical/near-infrared (NIR) broad band photometry and optical spectroscopic observations of the GRB 030329 host galaxy. The Spectral Energy Distribution (SED) of the host is consistent with a starburst galaxy template with a dominant stellar population age of ∼ 150 Myr and an extinction A_v ∼ 0.6. Analysis of the spectral emission lines shows that the host is likely a low metallicity galaxy. Two independent diagnostics, based on the restframe UV continuum and the [OII] line flux, provide a consistent unextincted star formation rate of SFR∼0.6M _⊙ yr^-1. The low absolute magnitude of the host (M_B ∼ -16.5) implies a high specific star formation rate value, SSFR ≅ 34M_⊙ yr^-1(L/L*)^-1.
