Soft Gamma Repeaters

Soft Gamma Repeaters are objects believed to be related to a particular type of supernova remnant and/or its associated neutron star which emit soft "pops" of gamma-ray energy in short intense bursts.
They are detectable by BATSE, but different from the "classical" gamma-ray burst.
