The long burst GRB 050717 was observed simultaneously by the Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) on Swift and the Konus instrument on Wind. Significant hard to soft spectral evolution was seen. Early gamma-ray and X-ray emission was detected by both BAT and the X-Ray Telescope (XRT) on Swift. The XRT continued to observe the burst for 7.1 days and detect it for 1.4 days. The X-ray light curve showed a classic decay pattern; the afterglow was too faint for a jet break to be detected. No optical, infrared or ultraviolet counterpart was discovered despite deep searches within 14 hours of the burst. Two particular features of the prompt emission make GRB 050717 a very unusual burst. First, the peak of the nu Fnu spectrum was observed to be 2401(-568/+781) keV for the main peak, which is the highest value of Epeak ever observed. Secondly, the spectral lag for GRB 050717 was determined to be 2.5 +- 2.6 ms, consistent with zero and unusually short for a long burst. This lag measurement suggests that this burst has a high intrinsic luminosity and hence is at high redshift (z > 2.7). Despite these unusual features GRB 050717 exhibits the classic prompt and afterglow behaviour of a gamma-ray burst.

We report on the short GRB051210 detected by the Swift-BAT. The light curve, on which we focus mainly, shows a hint of extended emission in the BAT energy range, a steep decay of the X-ray emission, without any flattening or break, and two small flar
es in the first 300 sec. The emission fades out after ~1000 s.
We report the observations of the prompt emission of the extremely long hard burst, GRB 060814B, discovered by Konus-Wind and localized by the IPN. The observations reveal a smooth, hard, ~40-min long pulse followed by weaker emission seen several ho
urs after the burst onset. We also present the Konus-Wind data on similar burst, GRB 971208, localized by BATSE/IPN. And finally we discuss the different possible origins of these unusual events.
INTEGRAL has observed 47 long-duration GRBs (T_90 > 2s) and 1 short-duration GRB (T_90 < 2s) in five years of observation since October 2002. This work presents the properties of the prompt emission of GRB 070707, which is the first short hard GRB ob
served by INTEGRAL. The spectral and temporal properties of GRB 070707 were determined using the two sensitive coded-mask gamma-ray instruments on board INTEGRAL, IBIS and SPI. The T_90 duration was 0.8s, and the spectrum of the prompt emission was obtained by joint deconvolution of IBIS and SPI data to yield a best fit power-law with photon index alpha = -1.19 +0.14 -0.13, which is consistent with the characteristics of short-hard gamma-ray bursts. The peak flux over 1 second was 1.79 photons/cm^2/s and the fluence over the same interval was 2.07 x 10^-7 erg/cm^2 in the energy range 20-200keV. The spectral lag measured between 25-50keV and 100-300keV is 20 +/- 5ms, consistent with the small or negligible lags measured for short bursts. The spectral and temporal properties of GRB 070707 are comparable to those of the short hard bursts detected by other gamma-ray satellites, including BATSE and Swift. We estimate a lower limit on the Lorentz factor Gamma >~ 25 for GRB 070707, assuming the typical redshift for short GRBs of z=0.35. This limit is consistent with previous estimates for short GRBs and is smaller than the lower limits of Gamma >~ 100 calculated for long GRBs. If GRB 070707 is a member of the recently postulated class of short GRBs at z ~ 1, the lower limit on Gamma increases to Gamma >~ 35.
The HETE-2 FREGATE and WXM instruments detected a short, hard GRB at 00:26:18.72 UT on 31 May 2002. A preliminary localization was reported as a GCN Position Notice 88 min after the burst, and a refined localization was disseminated 123 minutes later
. An IPN localization of the burst was reported 18 hours after the GRB, and a refined IPN localization was disseminated ~5 days after the burst. The final IPN localization, disseminated on 25 July 2002, is a diamond-shaped region centered on RA=15h 15m 11.18s, Dec=-19o 24 27.08 (J2000), and has an area of ~9 square arcminutes (99.7% confidence region). The prompt localization of the burst by HETE-2, coupled with the refinement of the localization by the IPN, made possible the most sensitive follow-up observations to date of a short, hard GRB at radio, optical, and X-ray wavelengths. The time history of GRB020531 at high (>30 keV) energies consists of a short, intense spike followed by a much less intense secondary peak, which is characteristic of many short, hard bursts. The duration of the burst increases with decreasing energy and the spectrum of the burst evolves from hard to soft, behaviors which are similar to those of long GRBs. This suggests that short, hard GRBs are closely related to long GRBs.
The TESS exoplanet-hunting mission detected the rising and decaying optical afterglow of GRB 191016A, a long Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) detected by Swift-BAT but without prompt XRT or UVOT follow-up due to proximity to the moon. The afterglow has a late p
eak at least 1000 seconds after the BAT trigger, with a brightest-detected TESS datapoint at 2589.7 s post-trigger. The burst was not detected by Fermi-LAT, but was detected by Fermi-GBM without triggering, possibly due to the gradual nature of rising light curve. Using ground-based photometry, we estimate a photometric redshift of $z_mathrm{phot} = 3.29pm{0.40}$. Combined with the high-energy emission and optical peak time derived from TESS, estimates of the bulk Lorentz factor $Gamma_mathrm{BL}$ range from $90-133$. The burst is relatively bright, with a peak optical magnitude in ground-based follow-up of $R=15.1$ mag. Using published distributions of GRB afterglows and considering the TESS sensitivity and sampling, we estimate that TESS is likely to detect $sim1$ GRB afterglow per year above its magnitude limit.
