... Before the BATSE/GRO launch GRBs seem to be a uniform phenomenon with duration up to ~100 seconds. The BATSE has detected many events longer than 100 s and a few longer than 500s. We performed the off-line scan of the 1024 ms continuous BATSE records and revealed several non-triggered episodes of the BATSE GRB trigger which confidently belong to the same very long GRBs. ... These superlong GRBs probably belong to the class of ''long'' GRBs constituting the tail of their duration distribution. ...

Abstract -- Calculations are performed for the linear polarization of starlight due to extinction by aligned dust grains when the starlight traverses a medium with irregular magnetic fields. This medium is intended to represent the optically thick components of interstellar clouds which are observed to make little, if any, contribution to the polarization of starlight. ...
