The isotropy of gamma-ray bursts collected in Current BATSE catalog is studied. It is shown that the quadrupole term being proportional to $\sim \sin 2b \sin l$ is non-zero with a probability 99.9%. The occurrence of this anisotropy term is…

We compare the burst distribution of the new (2B) BATSE catalogue to a cosmological distribution. We find that the distribution is insensitive to cosmological parameters such as Omega and Lambda and to the width of the bursts luminosity…

Blazars, a beamed population of active galactic nuclei, radiate high-energy gamma-rays, and thus are a good target for the Gamma Ray Large Area Space Telescope (GLAST). As the blazars trace the large-scale structure of the universe, one may…

We present a new measure of the angular two-point correlation function of Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs) at z~3, obtained from the variance of galaxy counts in 2-dimensional cells. By avoiding binning of the angular separations, this method is…

We develop match probability statistics to test the recurrences of gamma ray bursts in the BATSE catalog 1B and 2B. We do not find a signal of repetitions at the match level of 1.e-3.

We investigate the angular distribution of the $\gamma$-ray bursts in the publicly available BATSE catalogue, using the measures of burst brightness $B$ and short time scale ($\simless$ 0.3 s) variability $V$ which we introduced earlier. We…

Following the discovery by Quashnock and Lamb (1993) of an apparent excess of $\gamma$-ray burst pairs with small angular separations, we reanalyze the angular distribution of the bursts in the BATSE catalogue. We find that in addition to…
