BATSE - Burst and Transient Source Experiment
on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory
BATSE Pulsar Studies at Caltech
The BATSE Pulsar Project (a collaborative effort between the Caltech
High-Energy Astrophysics Group and the
BATSE Instrument Team at NASA Marshall Space Flight Center) is a comprehensive
program for the detection and study of accreting binary pulsars. The
project uses the 8 large area detectors of the Burst and
Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) on the Compton Gamma Ray
Observatory (GRO), which provide a nearly continuous all-sky
monitor of gamma-rays in the 20 keV to 1 MeV energy range.
Further information on GRO can be obtained from the
Compton Observatory Science Support Center.
Pretty pictures are found in here.
