Scientific paper

STACEE is an atmospheric Cherenkov detector using the large mirror area of a solar research facility to obtain a low energy threshold. The peak of a detected power law spectrum is around 100 GeV. An exciting possibility for STACEE is to follow up gamma-ray burst alerts from satellites. The low energy threshold of STACEE allows detection of gamma rays from higher redshifts than most other ground-based experiments. The STACEE instrument can be re-targeted to the position of a GRB within about four minutes of an alert to search for emission above 50 GeV. We discuss the STACEE sensitivity to high energy gamma-ray emission from GRBs.
