FERMILGRB - Fermi LAT Second Gamma-Ray Burst Catalog

Overview

The LAT routinely observes high-energy emission from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). Here we present the second catalog of LAT-detected GRBs. Initially, the second catalog covered the only the first 10 years of operations, from 2008 August 4 to 2018 August 4. The table given here has been supplemented to add later GRBs that were analyzed using the same procedure as the original catalog. It will be updated periodically with new GRBs.
