Up: Selection effects in the
In our analysis we found a significant selection on the BeppoSAX GRB coordinates,
while there is no evidence for a selection on X- or gamma-ray intensity.
As expected, there is a significant bias on the
duration in the BeppoSAX/WFC GRBs sample.
To partially overcome this problem
the BeppoSAX Science Operation Center is setting-up
a procedure for screening data from the GRBM
and WFC with a time resolution of 100 ms
(also
checking BATSE triggers, on a temporal rather than spatial basis)
([Smith et al. 1999]).
