Scientific paper

The Gamma Ray Observatory (GRO), scheduled for launch in 1990, will provide new and enhanced capabilities for the study of gamma-ray bursts. These include higher sensitivity, increased time resolution, broader energy coverage, rapid burst data dissemination and burst location by a single spacecraft. All four of the GRO instruments have burst capabilities, however the Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) is designed primarily for the study of gamma-ray bursts. The capabilities of BATSE and the GRO for gamma-ray burst studies are described.
