Scientific paper

The BATSE data does not prove that burst sources repeat, but also does not rule out such repetitions. However, the implications of the observed constraints depend on the repetition model. I find that the repetition content is very weakly dependent on the sky coverage (fraction of the sky observed on average) for models where bursts occur at an average rate, and is primarily a function of the number of bursts in a sample. A given observed repetition fraction (fraction of events which originate from sources which are observed to burst more than once) can be produced by a small number of sources which burst frequently or from a larger number which burst less frequently.
