Very High Energy Observations of Gamma-Ray Burst Locations with the Whipple Telescope

D. Horan, R. W. Atkins, H. M. Badran +56

Gamma-ray burst (GRB) observations at very high energies (VHE, E > 100 GeV) can impose tight constraints on some GRB emission models. Many GRB afterglow models predict a VHE compon…
