We search for a Ultra High Energy (E>1014 eV) counterpart source to cosmic γ-ray bursts detected with the BATSE detectors. Using the 3B catalog positions, we examine 115 candidate bursts with the CASA-MIA detector for UHE γ-ray emission at or near the time of the observed γ-ray burst. No statistically significant excess of γ-rays is found from any of the candidate event regions. Based upon these results, we calculate the flux limits for UHE emission from these candidate event regions. Typical 95% confidence level flux limits are about 6×10−12 γ cm−2 sec−1 at a γ-ray detection threshold of 160 TeV. |
