Abstract

We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of the late afterglow of GRB 000911. We detect a moderately significant re-brightening in the R, I and J lightcurves, associated with a sizable reddening of the spectrum. This can be explained through the presence of an underlying supernova, outshining the afterglow ~ 30 days after the burst event.
