Determining Bolometric Corrections for BATSE Burst Observations
Luis Borgonovo, Felix Ryde, Miguel de Val Borro, Roland Svensson
Abstract
We compare the energy and count fluxes obtained by integrating over the finite bandwidth of BATSE with a measure proportional to the bolometric energy flux, the phi-measure, introduced by Borgonovo & Ryde. We do this on a sample of 74 bright, long, and smooth pulses from 55 GRBs. The correction factors show a fairly constant behavior over the whole sample, when the signal-to-noise-ratio is high enough. We present the averaged spectral bolometric correction for the sample, which can be used to correct flux data.
