| Abstract: | We investigate the viability of the Galactic corona model of  -ray bursts by calculating the spatial distribution of neutron stars born with high velocities in the Galactic disk, and comparing the resulting brightness and angular distribution with the BATSE data. We find that the Galactic corona model can reproduce the BATSE peak flux and angular distribution data for neutron star kick velocities  800 km s–1, source turn-on ages 10 Myrs, and sampling depths 100 kpc  d
max 400 kpc. |
