The Fluence Duration Bias
  The fluence duration bias causes fluences and durations of faint gamma-ray bursts to be systematically underestimated relative to their peak fluxes. Using Monte Carlo analysis, we demonstrate how this effect explains characteristics of structure of the fluence vs. 1024 ms peak flux diagram. Evidence of this bias exists in the BATSE fluence duration database, and provides a partial explanation for the existence of burst class properties.
