We show that, in principle, almost-equal-to 70% of the gamma-ray burst
s observed by BATSE can come from local (less than or similar to kpc),
Galactic disk neutron stars, with the rest in an extended Galactic ha
lo. We consider three possible forms for the distribution of the Galac
tic halo sources: a Gaussian halo, an exponential halo, and a standard
''dark matter'' halo. We find that for the Gaussian halo the fraction
of bursts that can come from the Galactic disk can be almost-equal-to
2/3, close to the maximum possible value; for exponential and dark ma
tter halos, the fraction can be almost-equal-to 1/2 and almost-equal-t
o 1/5, respectively. As examples, we consider two particular disk-halo
combinations. In both, we use an exponential disk with scale height z
0, and BATSE can detect disk sources to a distance D(d) = (213)z0. In
the first example, we combine this with a Gaussian halo whose peak is
at R(s) = 25 kpc, and sigma = 38 kpc. The Earth is displaced R0 = 8.5
kpc from the Galactic Center, and BATSE can detect halo sources to a d
istance D(h) = 200 kpc. We take 66.8% of the sources to be in the disk
. For the second example, we use a '' dark matter'' halo that has a ''
core radius'' R(c) = 22.5 kpc, R0 = 8.5 kpc, and D(h) = 135.0 kpc; 20.
2% of the sources are taken to be in the disk. In each case, the value
s of [V/V(max)] [sin2 b], [cos theta], and the C(max)/C(min) distribut
ion are all easily consistent with the BATSE observations. Dividing th
e bursts into three, equal-sized groups of the brightest, intermediate
, and faintest, there is little difference in the values of [sin2 b] a
nd [cos theta], agreeing with the BATSE observations. The disk sources
have luminosities approximately 10(36-37) ergs s-1, while those in th
e halo have luminosities approximately 10(41-42) ergs s-1. The brighte
st observed bursts must come from the halo; this suggests that the bur
sts that exhibit cyclotron features come from halo sources.
