Milagro is a water-Cherenkov detector capable of observing air showers produced by gamma- rays. The wide field of view (~2 sr) and high duty cycle (>90%) of Milagro make it ideal for searching for transient very high energy emission. We will report on the results of a blind search of the Milagro data for very high energy ranging from 160 μs to 6 minutes. While this analysis is primarily aimed at

The Solar Tower Atmospheric Cherenkov Effect Experiment (STACEE) is an atmospheric
Cherenkov telescope that uses a large mirror array to achieve a relatively low energy
threshold. For sources with Crab-like spectra, at high elevations, the detector
response peaks near 100 GeV. Gamma-ray burst (GRB) observations have been a high
priority for the STACEE collaboration since the inception of the

The MAGIC Telescope is the only IACT suited for the observation of GRBs.
Thanks to its fast repositioning time and low energy threshold, MAGIC has
been able to perform observations of the prompt and early afterglow
emission of several GRBs. Since the beginning of operations of Swift
the GRB scenario has changed, both for what concerns the statistics of
alerts and for the new discoveries on th

Possibilities of an experimental search for gamma-ray bursts from primordial
black hole (PBH) evaporations in space are reconsidered. It is argued that the
corresponding constraints which can be obtained in experiments with cosmic
ray detectors strongly depend on theoretical approach used for a description of
the PBH evaporation process. Predictions of several theoretical models for
gam

Milagro is a wide field (2 sr) high duty cycle (>90%) ground based water Cherenkov
detector built to observe extensive air showers produced by high energy particles
interacting in the Earth's atmosphere. Milagro records extensive air showers in the
energy range 100 GeV to 100 TeV, as well as the counting rates of the individual
photomultiplier tubes in the detector. The individual tube countin

On June 2, 2006, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered a bursting event in
the 15-350 keV energy band which lasted ~9 sec. The burst position was being observed
with the H.E.S.S. array of four Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) at
energies above 100 GeV throughout the duration of the burst, and both before and
after the burst. A total of ~5 hours of observation was obta

GLAST is a gamma-ray mission which will be launched in November 2007. It is equipped
with the GLAST Burst Monitor (GBM) which detects Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) with high
reliability and provides a position and energy spectrum in the range between 10 keV
and 30 MeV. The Large Area Telescope (LAT) will observe photons with energies from 20
MeV up to more than 300 GeV. With GLAST it will be possibl
