Subject
GRB 060901: pseudo-z from spectral parameters of the prompt
Date

From
Jean-Luc Atteia at Lab d Astrophys.,OMP,Toulouse <atteia@ast.obs-mip.fr>
A. Pelangeon & J-L. Atteia (LATT-OMP) report:

We have used the spectral parameters of GRB 060901
provided by Golenetskii et al. (GCNC 5498) to
compute the spectral pseudo-redshift** of this burst
detected by INTEGRAL (Mereghetti et al., GCNC 5491).

We find a pseudo-redshift pz= 2.0 +/- 0.5
