Timing accuracy of the SROSS C-2 GRB experiment.

SINHA S.

Abstract (from CDS):

The SROSS C-2 (hereafter SROSS) trigger times have been derived from the satellite onboard telemetry clock, which had a large and variable drift rate. An analytical approach is used to model the drift of the onboard clock. The corrected trigger times are used to cross-correlate the SROSS time histories with their corresponding BATSE time histories. The results of these cross-correlations clearly establish that the corrected SROSS trigger times are sufficiently accurate to be used for triangulating several gamma-ray bursts (for which the locations are not known), using other spacecraft data to obtain reasonably small location error boxes.
