Scientific paper

A statistical analysis is carried out of gamma-ray burst data collected on the Venera 11 and Venera 12 missions. The results are shown to be consistent with the idea that the burst sources are neutron stars in the galaxy. It is noted that the total number of gamma-ray bursts occurring in the galaxy annually may reach about 10,000. Depending on the duration of the burst, the energy released in the burst sources is put at between 10 to the 38th and 10 to the 40th ergs. The importance of identifying at least some gamma-ray sources with specific astrophysical objects is stressed.
