高能GeV的观测发现没有想象的多，这给高能辐射一个限制，至少大部分暴不是由高能辐射主导，也说明MeV的高能部分不是一个幂律延伸到GeV。如果这个没有高能辐射来自于GeV光子的广深的话，对Lorentz因子也给出了限制小于300.

Abstract
We investigate the constraints imposed on the luminosity function (LF) of long duration Gamma Ray Bursts (LGRBs) by the flux distribution of bursts detected by the GBM at ~1 MeV, and the implications of the non detection of the vast majority, ~95%, of the LGRBs at higher energy, ~1 GeV, by the LAT detector. We find a LF that is consistent with those determined by BATSE and Swift. The non detections by LAT set upper limits on the ratio R of the prompt fluence at ~1 GeV to that at ~1 MeV. The upper limits are more stringent for brighter bursts, with R<{0.1,0.3,1} for {5,30,60}% of the bursts. This implies that for most bursts the prompt ~1 GeV emission may be comparable to the ~1 MeV emission, but can not dominate it. The value of R is not universal, with a spread of (at least) an order of magnitude around R~10^(-1). For several bright bursts with reliable determination of the photon spectral index at ~1 MeV, the LAT non detection implies an upper limit to the ~100 MeV flux which is 0.1
