  8. Histograms of 50-100 keV fluence of S-GRBs BAT: 10% S-GRBs (90% L-GRBs) Discussion: Short on S-GRBs in BAT BATSE: 25% S-GRBs (75% L-GRBs) BAT Factor of 2.5 small # on S-GRBs in BAT BATSE - Rate trigger • BAT • Rate trigger • Imaging vs. BATSE Possibility 1. BAT is not missing S-GRBs 2. BAT is missing S-GRBs BATSE’s missIDs: TGFs, SGRs, … No significant difference in the S-GRBs fluence distribution … Might be a room to improve S-GRB detection in BAT 2010 Kyoto GRB Conference

  15. BAT PL PhIndex vs. Redshift Epeak-  relation (Sakamoto et al. 2009) 2010 Kyoto GRB Conference

  16. Discussion: BAT High-z GRBs BAT High-z GRBs: • T90 is not all long. • Observed spectrum is not soft. If you are interested in hunting high-z GRBs… • Detector with a softer energy band (e.g. X-ray) might not help. • Detector with a large effective area (high sensitivity). • Large FOV (high-z GRB is rare). • Sophisticated on-board trigger/localization software. 2010 Kyoto GRB Conference

  17. L-GRBs vs. S-GRBs Summary • BAT <T90> = 70s (BATSE <T90> = 30 s) • Significantly longer duration in BAT (softer energy band) • BAT S-GRBs are harder than L-GRBs (large overlap) • Lack of S-GRBs in BAT: • BAT S-GRBs 10% (BATSE S-GRBs 25% ) Observed properties vs. Redshift (BAT high-z GRBs) • T90 is not all long • Observed spectrum is not soft Stay tune for the BAT2 GRB catalog! 2010 Kyoto GRB Conference
