>A selection of hard x-ray bursts detected in the range 20 to 200 keV aboard the satellite OSO-6 is presented. A description is given of the treatment of data and the information that can be extracted from them, as afforded by the instrumental characteristics. The nature of the present results is such that features of hard x-ray bursts can be determined and correlatcd with other kinds of observations on a time scale of plus or minus 1 minute. It is also shown how significant samples of events analyzed in this way can be used to investigate their group properties, bearing information on the physical processes involved. (auth)
