Scientific paper

Because spectral features have not been detected in the BATSE burst data, we study the statistical implications of what could have been detected in the spectra accumulated by BATSE. Specifically, we analyze the detectability of spectral lines in burst spectra to: 1) identify the bursts in which lines would be most detectable; 2) evaluate the consistency between the absence of a line detection by BATSE and the detections reported by previous missions; and 3) constrain the rate at which lines occur based on the observations.
