Only four identified 80 SGRs are discovered in the last 20 years: SGR0526-66, SGR1806-20, SGR1900+14, SG 81 R1627-41. GRBs and SGRs can be explained with an unique precessing gamma jet mod 82 el observed at different beam-angle and at different ages. -

An early maximum coincident 16 with the MeV peak is the high-energy extension of the synchrotron component, some seconds 17 after the burst onset. The second maximum peaking at $\approx$ 1.5 hours is due primarily to 18 SSC radiation with significant emission of up to $10^5$ sec.
