Model Independent Methods of Describing GRB Spectra Using BATSE MER Data

TL;DR

This paper discusses the Gamma Ray Inverse Problem and introduces four model-independent spectral deconvolution methods applied to BATSE MER data, comparing their results to Band spectra.

Contribution

It presents four novel model-independent methods for spectral deconvolution of GRB data, expanding analysis techniques beyond traditional models.

Findings

Four spectral deconvolution methods successfully applied to BATSE MER data

Comparison shows differences and similarities with Band spectra

Methods provide alternative approaches to GRB spectral analysis

Abstract

The Gamma Ray Inverse Problem is discussed. Four methods of spectral deconvolution are presented here and applied to the BATSE's MER data type. We compare these to the Band spectra.
