Gamma Rays: Bursts, Methods: Data Analysis

Scientific paper

It is a well-known observation that many GRBs have spectra with curvature in the less than 1 MeV regime, but flatten out to approximately a -2 power law at higher energies. The large collecting area of BATSE allows spectral studies with unprecedented time resolution. We are conducting a systematic study of time-resolved spectroscopy of GRBs observed by BATSE. Several aspects of this survey are discussed: correlations among fit parameters and between fit parameters and intensity; screening for spectral features usingσ-residual contour maps; and an introduction to the GRB ‘topographic’ map and its possible qualitative diagnostic abilities.
