grbR Documentation

Gamma ray burst (GRB) data

Description

Data on gamma ray bursts from the Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) 4Br catalogue. There are nine features (T50, T90, F1, F2, F3, F4, P64, P256, P1024) on 1,973 GRBs, where the features are defined as:

  • T50, T90:The time by which 50 and 90 percent of the flux arrive, respectively.

  • F1, F2, F3, F4:The time-integrated fluences in spectral channels 20–50, 50–100, 100–300 and >300 keV, respectively.

  • P64, P256, P1024:The peak fluxes as measured within bins of 64, 256 and 1024 ms, respectively.

Usage
