Integrating the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor into the 3rd Interplanetary Network

K. Hurley, M. Briggs, V. Connaughton +35

We are integrating the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor (GBM) into the Interplanetary Network (IPN) of Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) detectors. With the GBM, the IPN will comprise 9 experimen…
