Preece (UAH | Abstract: | We evaluate the significance of the line candidates identified by a visual search of burst spectra from BATSE’s Spectroscopy Detectors. None of the candidates satisfy our detection criteria: an F-test probability less than 10^-4 for a feature in one detector and consistency among the detectors which viewed the burst. Most of the candidates are not very significant, and are likely to be fluctuations. Because of the expectation of finding absorption lines, the search was biased towards absorption features. We do not have a quantitative measure of the completeness of the search which would enable a comparison with previous missions. Therefore a more objective computerized search has begun. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/9508158 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
