| 内容記述 | The Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) detects any gamma-ray burst not obscured by the earth and intense enough to produce a sufficiently strong signal in at least two of its eight large area NaI detectors (LADs). For a given intensity, a LAD records a stronger signal from a source which directly faces it than from a source to its side. Thus, BATSE's detection of a gamma-ray burst may depend upon the burst's direction. We discuss the effect of this uneven exposure to the sky on the instrument's measurement of the distribution of gamma-ray burst directions and intensities, and we describe our method of accounting for the effect. |
