HETE-II and the Interplanetary Network

Astrophysics 2009-11-07 v1

Abstract

The FREGATE experiment aboard HETE-II has been successfully integrated into the Third Interplanetary Network (IPN) of gamma-ray burst detectors. We show how HETE's timing has been verified in flight, and discuss what HETE can do for the IPN and vice-versa.
