Scientific paper

The measurement of gamma ray bursts by using interplanetary network and study of the morphology of light curves are discussed. Ulysses, now close to Jupiter, PVO, orbiting the planet Venus and CGRO, the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory near the Earth, all carry gamma ray burst detectors. The Ulysses detector, which is further away from the Earth than any previous burst detector is sensitive to 2 to 150 keV X-rays and with time resolution down to 8 ms. By the time of arrival method more than 12 gamma ray bursts were detected by three widely separated detectors and can be localized with high accuracy depending on the location of the various spacecraft.
