In-Flight Performance and First Results of FREGATE
The gamma‐ray detector of HETE‐2, called FREGATE, has been designed to detect gamma‐ray bursts in the energy range 6–400 keV. Its main task is to alert the other instruments of the occurrence of a gamma‐ray burst (GRB) and to provide the spectral coverage of the GRB prompt emission in hard …
