Asteroid-mass primordial black hole dark matter could be probed by picolensing of gamma-ray bursts, but only with detector separations of at least Earth-L2 distance once realistic GRB size uncertainties are included.

abstract
The Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (CGRO) has triggered on 1637 cosmic gamma-ray bursts between 1991 April 19 and 1996 August 29. These events constitute the Fourth BATSE burst catalog. The current version (4Br) has been revised from the version first circulated on CD-ROM in September 1997 (4B) to include improved locations for a subset of bursts that have been reprocssed using additional data. A significant difference from previous BATSE catalogs is the inclusion of bursts from periods when the trigger energy range differed from the nominal 50-300 keV. We present tables of the burst occurrence times, locations, peak fluxes, fluences, and durations. In general, results from previous BATSE catalogs are confirmed here with greater statistical significance.

Picolensing as a Probe of Primordial Black Hole Dark Matter
Asteroid-mass primordial black hole dark matter could be probed by picolensing of gamma-ray bursts, but only with detector separations of at least Earth-L2 distance once realistic GRB size uncertainties are included.
