Late-time HST and JWST Observations of GRB 221009A: Evidence for a Break in the Light Curve at 50 days

GRB 221009A is one of the brightest transients ever observed, with the highest peak gamma-ray flux for a gamma-ray burst (GRB). A Type Ic-BL supernova (SN), SN 2022xiw, was definitively detected in late-time JWST spectroscopy ( t = 195 days, observer frame). However, photometric studies have found S...
