title = "Egret observations of gamma-ray bursts",
abstract = "The EGRET instrument has detected gamma-ray bursts in its large-volume NaI spectrometer, anticoincidence shield and imaging spark chamber. Its spectral range from 1 MeV to greater than 200 MeV overlaps with and extends beyond those of other instruments on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory. For intense high-energy bursts in the telescope field of view, detection of gamma rays in the spark chamber telescope allows the location of a burst to be determined. Only six bursts, three of which were strong bursts with gamma-ray energies greater than 10 MeV, have been observed to date as a result of BATSE triggers. Interest in spectral breaks at low energies led to a careful examination of the EGRET sensitivity in the overlap region with BATSE. The low-energy sensitivity was studied using the detailed CGRO mass model; the resulting sensitivity values are presented as a function of burst direction relative to EGRET.",
