A comparison of the gamma-ray bursts detected by BATSE and Swift

Publication at Faculty of Mathematics and Physics |

Abstract

The durations of 388 gamma-ray bursts detected by the Swift satellite are analyzed statistically. The results are then compared with the results obtained earlier for data from the BATSE database.

The analysis of the entire data sample provides a support for the existence of three burst subgroups.
