On the Possibility of Identification of a Short/Hard Burst GRB 051103 with the Giant Flare from a Soft Gamma Repeater in the M81 Group of Galaxies

Abstract

The light curve, energy characteristics, and localization of a short/hard GRB 051103 burst are considered. Evidence in favor of identifying this event with a giant flare from a soft gamma repeater in the nearby M81 group of interacting galaxies is discussed.
