S. Plueschke, R. Georgii, R. Diehl +7
The type Ia supernova SN1998bu in M96 was observed by COMPTEL for a total of 88 days starting 17 days after the first detection of the supernova. The accumulated effective observat…
Possibility of the detection of classical novae with the shield of the INTEGRAL-spectrometer SPI
P. Jean, J. Gomez-Gomar, M. Hernanz +7
The shield of the INTEGRAL spectrometer provides a large detection area with a wide field-of-view. Calculations have been performed to check whether the temporal analysis of the co…
