Over the past few years, we have worked on a number of aspects of GRB searches and astrophysics, these include:

• Estimates of the expected rates
• Chances of detection based on the observing scenarios paper
• Improved detection chances if distance is known
• Face on search
• Sky patches
• Time shifts (both long and short) for background estimation
• Preparation for advanced detectors: longer templates, etc

The git repository hosting papers on this subject is available at this link.
