Notes

  • This event was included in Catalog 1.
  • Fitburst and/or flux/fluence pipeline results are taken from Catalog 1.
  • This event should be excluded from parameter inference due to non-nominal telescope operation.
  • The pulse emission region was extended during fluence estimation.
  • Exposure. Event occurred during the commissioning period (before 4 September 2018) when system performance and sensitivity were uncharacterized and thus should be excluded from population studies.
  • Flux and fluence. Flux/fluence measurements and errors taken from Catalog 1.
