Scientific paper

Combining BATSE and EGRET data yields spectral fits over the broadest energy range for the prompt phase of gamma-ray bursts. The spectra from the BATSE data have previously been reported; however, the addition of higher energy EGRET data further constrains the values of the peak energy and high-energy spectral index. The EGRET data from the TASC (Total Absorption Shower Counter) begin at 1 MeV and for brighter bursts extend beyond 10 MeV. These data are combined using the separate response matrices of each detector and a common spectral fitting algorithm, RMFIT, which has been extensively used with BATSE data. The spectrum from GRB910503 is presented.
