The third Konus-<i>Wind</i> catalogue of short gamma-ray bursts

Abstract In this catalogue, we present the results of a systematic study of 199 short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected by Konus- Wind between 1 January 2011 and 31 August 2021. The catalogue extends the Second Catalogue of short GRBs covering the period 1994–2010 by ten years of data. The resulting Konus- Wind short GRB sample includes 494 bursts. From temporal and spectral analyses of the sample, we provide the burst durations, spectral lags, estimates of the minimum variability timescales, rise and decay times, the results of spectral fits with three model functions, the total energy fluences, and the peak energy fluxes of the bursts. We present statistical distributions of these parameters for the complete set of 494 short GRBs detected in 1994–2021. We discuss in detail the properties of the bursts with extended emission in the context of the whole short GRB population. Finally, we consider the results in the context of the Type I (merger-origin)/Type II (collapsar-origin) classification and discuss the extragalactic magnetar giant flare subsample.
