Based on the study of temporal asymmetry of 631 gamma ray bursts from the BATSE 3B catalog by Link and Epstein [Ap J 466, 764 (1996)], we identify the population of bursts whose rising times are longer than their decays, thus showing…

A simple test for time-asymmetry is devised and carried out on the brightest gamma-ray bursts detected by the Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) on board the {\it Compton} Gamma Ray Observatory. We show evidence that individual…

We use Bayesian methods to analyze the distribution of gamma ray burst intensities reported in the Third BATSE Catalog (3B catalog) of gamma ray bursts, presuming the distribution of burst sources (``bursters'') is isotropic. We study both…

The cosmological expansion cannot produce the reported correlations of the gamma-ray burst timescale and spectral energy with peak flux if the burst model reproduces the BATSE 3B peak-flux distribution for a non-evolving burst source…

In this paper, we study a sample of 65 short duration bursts contained in the 3B catalogue. We fit the time profiles of these GRBs with lognormal functions and study various temporal properties. In most of the multi-peaked bursts, our…

We propose a new, simple but powerful algorithm to analyze the gamma-ray burst temporal structures based on identifying non-statistical variations (``peaks'') in the time histories. Detailed analyses of the bursts from the third BATSE…

The average peak-aligned profile of all bursts detected by BATSE with sufficient data quality has a simple ``stretched'' exponential shape, F ~ exp[-(t/t_0)^{1/3}], where $t$ is the time measured from the time for the peak flux of the…

We perform several nonparametric correlation tests on the BATSE 3B data to search for evidence of cosmological time dilation. These tests account for the effects of data truncation due to threshold effects in both limiting brightness and…

We analyse the BATSE 3B catalog using the pair-matching statistic. This statistic counts only the burst pairs which may have originated from the same source, so it is less likely to yield false detections of ``repeating bursts" than the…

Many of the important conclusions about Gamma-Ray Bursts follow from the distributions of various quantities such as peak flux or duration. We show that for astrophysical transients such as bursts, multiple selection thresholds can lead to…

Individual gamma ray bursts (GRBs) have very diverse time behavior - from a single pulse to a long complex sequence of chaotic pulses of different timescales. I studied light curves of GRBs using data from the CGRO's BATSE experiment and…

We observe strong correlations between the temporal properties of gamma ray bursts (GRBs) and their apparent peak brightness. The strongest effect (with a significance level of 10^{-6}) is the difference between the brightness distributions…

We have averaged bright BATSE bursts to uncover the average overall temporal and spectral evolution of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). We align the temporal structure of each burst by setting its duration to a standard duration, which we call…

A time dependent two-point correlation-function analysis of the BATSE 2B catalog finds no evidence of burst repetition. As part of this analysis, we discuss the effects of sky exposure on the observability of burst repetition and present…

Using the data acquired in the Time To Spill (TTS) mode for long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) collected by the Burst and Transient Source Experiment on board the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (BATSE/CGRO), we have carefully measured spectral…

We analyze BATSE time-tagged event (TTE) data for short gamma-ray bursts (T90 duration < 2.6 s), studying spectral lag vs. peak flux and duration, as well as the number of distinct pulse structures per burst. Performing the…

The redshift distribution of gamma-ray bursts collected in the BATSE Catalog is compared with the star formation rate. We aim to clarify the accordance between them. We also study the case of comoving number density of bursts monotonously…

Revised upper limits on gamma-ray burst repetition rates are found using the BATSE 3B and 4B catalogs. A statistical repetition model is assumed in which sources burst at a mean rate but in which BATSE observes bursts randomly from each…

We present the time integrated and time resolved spectral analysis of a sample of bright bursts selected from the BATSE archive. We fitted four different spectral models to the time integrated and time resolved spectra of the flux pulses.…

Six intensity groups with ~150 BATSE gamma-ray bursts each are compared using average emissivity curves. Time-stretch factors for each of the dimmer groups are estimated with respect to the brightest group, which serves as the reference,…
