Abstract：
A search for gamma-ray bursts at the 10 TeV energy region was made using data of the Yangbajing air shower experiment in Tibet. About 4×10⁸ events were analyzed to search for shower clusters appearing in a given time interval and a given small sky bin. An equal-zenith angle method is used to estimate the background. Some clusters show the excess to the background but with less significance as the evidence of gamma-ray bursts. The much-higher sensitivity of the Yangbajing Phase Ⅱ array to the detection of the 10 TeV gamma-ray bursts is discussed.
