Scientific paper

The Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) is one of four instruments on the Compton Observatory which was launched by the space shuttle Atlantis on 5 Apr. 1991. As of the end of Nov. 1993, BATSE detected more than 830 cosmic gamma ray bursts and more than 690 solar flares. Pulsed gamma rays have been detected from at least 16 sources and emission from at least 28 sources (including most of the pulsed sources) has been detected by the earth occultation technique. The daily BATSE operations tasks represent a substantial level of effort and involve a large team which includes MSFC personnel as well as contractors such as UAH. The effort is naturally divided into several areas: data operations, burst operations, occultation operations, and pulsar operations. UAH personnel have been involved to some extent in all of these as well as contributing to various areas of scientific data analysis.
