Early Hard X-ray Afterglows of Short GRBs with Konus Experiments

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

For a ten of 125 short GRBs observed by Konus-Wind and the Konus-A the existance of statistically significant flux of hard photons accompanying initial event for a time of tens to hundred seconds after the trigger was revealed. Temporal, spectral, and energetic characteristics of these events are presented. The statistical analysis of the whole burst sample reveals that the afterglow is a more common feature of short GRBs.
