Finally, in addition to these 22 bursts, other two SGR burst candidates have been detected: 980831, UT 22:52:40.71, attributed to SGR1900+14, and 980618, UT 03:44:00.04, attributed to SGR1627-41; since they have not been detected by Konus/WIND, they need confirmation. Table reports all these SGR events as seen with the GRBM; the two SGR burst candidates have been classified as ``uncertain''.

Other bursts from SGR1900+14 have been detected by other experiments as well: this is the case of the burst occurred on July 2, 2001, first detected by HETE-II (Ricker et al., GCN 1078), and then confirmed by the GRBM detection (Montanari et al. , GCN 1081).
The SGR1900+14 burst occurred on August 29, 1998, i.e. two days after the impressive giant flare of August 27, has been classified as ``intermediate'' burst in table , owing to its unusual properties; this burst was also detected by BATSE and RXTE ([Ibrahim et al., 2001]).
One SGR1900+14 burst, occurred on September 15, 1998, was in the field of view of the NFI/BeppoSAX, while the April 2001 giant flare ([Guidorzi et al., 2001c], Guidorzi et al. , GCN 1041) was in the WFC1 field of view; the extraordinary brightness of this flare switched off the WFC by rate protection.
In figg. , the time profiles of the short SGR1900+14 bursts are shown; the two giant flares are treated later on. The energy band is 40-700 keV in all figures, since only in this range HTR profiles are acquired; the numbers among brackets refer to the GRBM unit numbers used for the light curves: e.g., ``(1+2+3+4)'' means that the light curve shown is the sum of all GRBM units curves, and so on. Similarly, figg. , show the time histories of the bursts from SGR1627-41. In the case of SGR1806-20, fig. shows both bursts detected with the GRBM; the light curve of 961122 belongs to the GRBM unit 1, instead of unit 4, that is the brightest, because only the HTR data of unit 1 are available within the current GRBM archive.
