Abstract
- The ARGO-YBJ experiment has been designed to decrease the energy threshold of typical Extensive Air Shower arrays by exploiting the high altitude location (Tibet, People's Republic of China, 4300 m a.s.l.) and the full coverage. The lower energy limit of the detector (a few GeV) is reached with the single particle technique, recording the counting rate at fixed time intervals. We present first results concerning the search for emission from Gamma-Ray Bursts in coincidence with satellite detections
