Scientific paper

We present results from a search for GRBs in the energy range from tens of GeVs to one TeV with an array of 4 water Cherenkov detectors located at 4550 m a.s.l. as part of the high mountain observatory of Sierra Negra (N18°59.1, W97°18.76) near Puebla city in México. The detectors consist of light-tight cylindrical containers of 1 m2 and 4 m2 cross section filled with purified water; they are spaced 25 m and have a 5'' photomultiplier (EMI model 9030A) facing down along the cylindrical axis. We report the measured rates of the electromagnetic and mounic components of the background as the photon estimated flux.
