Abstract
We report on bursts from the Soft Gamma-Ray Repeater SGR 1806--20 detected with INTEGRAL
in October 2003, during a period of moderate activity of the source. The spectral
and temporal properties of 21 short bursts are consistent with those found in previous
observations, even if these bursts are among the faintest observed in the 15-200 keV
range from this source. During some of the bursts a clear spectral evolution is visible.
The data also show, for the first time, evidence for a hardness-intensity anti-correlation
within SGR 1806--20 bursts.
