Cavallo, G. ; Jelley, J. V. Abstract Various interpretations are discussed for the apparent absence of radio pulses at 151 MHz in time coincidence with the Vela satellite gamma-ray bursts. While the negative results are consistent with either a galactic or an extragalactic origin for the gamma-ray bursts, the constraints are, in most cases, less stringent for models based on a local or galactic origin. The absence of VHF radio pulses suggests that the gamma-ray bursts do not arise from stellar superflares, assuming that the latter are directly scaled-up solar-type events.
