Follow-up Observations of Gamma-ray Bursts with STACEE

STACEE is an atmospheric Cherenkov telescope using the large mirror area of a solar research facility to obtain a low energy threshold. The telescope has a peak in the detected signal of a power-law gamma-ray spectrum near 100 GeV. The low energy threshold of STACEE allows detection of gamma rays from higher redshifts than most other ground-based experiments. The STACEE instrument can be re-targeted to the position of a GRB within a few minutes of an alert to search for emission above 50 GeV. So far, data have been acquired within a few hours of the burst for five GRB. We discuss the STACEE sensitivity to high energy gamma-ray emission from GRB and preliminary results of the observations.
