Spatial distribution of gamma-ray bursts (both in redshift and in the angular sky position) Attila Mészáros

Abstract

      Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are at cosmological distances. Because there is no gap at the Galactic plane, they can well serve to test the fulfillment of the cosmological principle requiring a spatially homogeneous and isotropic distribution. In this contribution the author's and his collaborators' efforts are surveyed concerning the spatial distribution - both in redshift and in the angular distribution. Bold anisotropies are found in the dataset gained by the BATSE instrument of the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory.
