Observation of GRB 030131 with the INTEGRAL satellite
A long Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) was detected with the instruments on board the INTEGRAL satellite on January 31, 2003. Although most of the GRB, which lasted ∼150 s, occurred during a satellite slew, the automatic software of the INTEGRAL Burst Alert System was able to detect it in near-real time. Here...
