Scientific paper

GLAST (Gamma-ray Large Area Space Telescope) is a gamma-ray astronomy mission that will be launched in mid 2007. The main instrument is the LAT (Large Area Telescope), a pair conversion telescope with sensitivity in the range 20MeV-300GeV. Data Challenge One (DC1) was the simulation of one week of observation of the entire gamma-ray sky by the LAT detector. The simulated data was similar to the real data, which allowed for the development of scientific software. In this paper we present the GRB simulations and the detection algorithms developed by the GLAST GRB and Solar Flare Science Team.
