The distribution of γ‐ray bursts as observed by BATSE rules out the galactic disk origin, and it is consistent with the cosmological origin. Much work is currently done to reconcile galactic halo distribution with the absence of dipole and quadrupole moments in the positions of BATSE bursts. A relativistic expansion of the source is implied by both the

The time histories, size spectrum, spatial distribution, and repetition rates of gamma ray bursts are reviewed briefly. Evidence for a neutron star origin for gamma ray bursts may be found in many of these aspects of bursters. New results from optical searches are described.

Gamma-ray bursts and gamma-ray blazars
AIP Conference Proceedings, 1994We propose that cosmological gamma‐ray bursts are produced when modestly sized black holes tidally disrupt stars, energizing relativistically outflowing jets and producing bursts for favorably oriented observers. The crucial test of this model is the detection of soft x‐ray flares with durations of ∼102 s and fluences ∼10−10−10−6 ergs cm−2 at rates of ...

Abstract The potential value of investigation of the γ-ray content of cosmic radiation has long been recognized, but evaluation of measurements made with high-flying balloons is difficult because of the generation of secondary γ-rays in the atmosphere above the detector.

Abstract The observational status of gamma-ray astronomy in the TeV energy range is rapidly changing and is reviewed (1987) with emphasis on the limitations of the present observations. It is apparent that gamma-ray detection techniques must be improved and some methods by which this can be achieved are outlined.

Very high-energy gamma rays from gamma-ray bursts
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2007Very high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray astronomy has undergone a transformation in the last few years, with telescopes of unprecedented sensitivity having greatly expanded the source catalogue. Such progress makes the detection of a gamma-ray burst at the highest energies much more likely than previously.

We summarize the observed features of γ-ray bursts, with particular emphasis on the cyclotron lines seen in their spectra. We then discuss the theory of cyclotron resonant scattering, and compare the theoretical and observed line spectra. Finally, we mention some implications.

Several TeV sources γ-rays have been detected in the past decade, and others have been proposed. They can be divided into three main categories: galactic, extra-galactic, and exotic. Here I review the two former categories, which contain the sources which have been observed, with discussions of the source characteristics and the physical mechanisms by ...
