Toward Ultra Short Gamma Ray Burst Ground Based Detection, SGARFACE status

Abstract

We present the status and motivation of the Short GAmma Ray Front Air Cherenkov Experiment (SGARFACE) which will be operated parallel to standard Very High Energy gamma-ray observations using the Whipple 10m telescope. SGARFACE is sensitive to 100MeV-10GeV gamma-ray bursts with durations ranging from 100ns to 100us providing a fluence sensitivity as low as few $ 1E-9 erg/cm2. Preliminary data taking started in November 2002.
