Abstract
Gamma-ray bursts may be from jetlike sources in relativistic bulk moti on. In this case, the emission of gamma rays is strongly beamed along the direction of the bulk motion. We analyze effects of the relativist ic bulk motion and the resulting beamed emission on statistics of the gamma-ray bursts.
