  Some short GRBs are followed by longer extended emission, lasting anywhere
from ~10 to ~100 s. These short GRBs with extended emission (EE) can possess
observational characteristics of both short and long GRBs (as represented by
GRB 060614), and the traditional classification based on the observed duration
places some of them in the long GRB class. While GRBs with EE pose a challenge
to the compact binary merger scenario, they may therefore provide an important
link between short and long duration events. To identify the population of GRBs
with EE regardless of their initial classifications, we performed a systematic
search of short GRBs with EE using all available data (up to February 2013) of
both Swift/BAT and Fermi/GBM. The search identified 16 BAT and 14 GBM detected
GRBs with EE, several of which are common events observed with both detectors.
We investigated their spectral and temporal properties for both the spikes and
the EE, and examined correlations among these parameters. Here we present the
results of the systematic search as well as the properties of the identified
events. Finally, their properties are also compared with short GRBs with EE
observed with BATSE, identified through our previous search effort. We found
several strong correlations among parameters, especially when all of the
samples were combined. Based on our results, a possible progenitor scenario of
two-component jet is discussed.
