VERITAS
The Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System (VERITAS), which operates in Arizona, monitors gamma-ray bursts to look for gamma rays greater than 100 GeV. Using diagnostic plots for each data run, we determined which bursts have good quality data to be analyzed. From summer of 2006 to winter of 2022, there are 100 bursts with good VERITAS data that we are using in the study. We are looking at bursts individually to look for strong emission and for bursts without strong emission, we will be looking at the collection of those bursts for possible weaker emission. Preliminary results of the study will be presented.
