SGARFACE: A Novel Detector For Microsecond Gamma Ray Bursts
Abstract
The Short GAmma Ray Front Air Cherenkov Experiment (SGARFACE) is operated at the Whipple Observatory utilizing the Whipple 10m gamma-ray telescope. SGARFACE is sensitive to gamma-ray bursts of more than 100MeV with durations from 100ns to 35us and provides a fluence sensitivity as low as 0.8 gamma-rays per m2 above 200MeV (0.05 gamma-rays per m2 above 2GeV) and allows to record the burst time structure.
