GRB080319B - FINE STRUCTURE LINE VARIABILITY<br />

Fine structure lines nearly<br />

disappear<br />

in less than 2 hours<br />

(less than 1h rest frame at<br />

z=0.937)!<br />

Fe II*<br />

2396<br />

Ground state lines remain<br />

constant (slight increment<br />

compatible with the<br />

decreasing of the excited<br />

levels)<br />

The strongest fine structure line variation<br />

ever found<br />

(optical depth reduced by a factor of 4 – 20)<br />
