The Soft Gamma-Ray Spectral Variability of Cygnus X-1
M. L. McConnell, A. A. Zdziarski, K. Bennett +11
We have used observations of Cygnus X-1 from the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory (CGRO) and BeppoSAX to study the variation in the MeV gamma-ray emission between the hard and soft sp…
COMPTEL Observations of the Blazars 3C 454.3 and CTA 102
S. Zhang, W. Collmar, V. Schoenfelder +5
We have analyzed the two blazars of 3C 454.3 and CTA 102 using all available COMPTEL data from 1991 to 1999. In the 10-30 MeV band, emission from the general direction of the sourc…
Detection of the 67.9 keV and 78.4 keV lines associated with the radioactive decay of Ti-44 in Cassiopeia A
Jacco Vink, J. Martin Laming, Jelle Kaastra +3
We report the detection of the Sc-44 nuclear decay lines at 67.9 keV and 78.4 keV associated with the nuclear decay of Ti-44 in Cassiopeia A. The line emission was observed by the…
Gamma-Ray Spectral Variability of Cygnus X-1
M. L. McConnell, K. Bennett, H. Bloemen +11
We have used observations from CGRO to study the variation in the MeV emission of Cygnus X-1 between its low and high X-ray states. These data provide a measurement of the spectral…
COMPTEL Observations of the Blazar PKS 1622-297 during a Gamma-Ray High State in 1995
S. Zhang, W. Collmar, V. Schonfelder +6
PKS 1622-297 was detected as a source of gamma-rays by the EGRET experiment at energies above 100 MeV during a gamma-ray outburst June and July 1995. We analyzed the COMPTEL data (…
56Co gamma-rays from SN1998bu: COMPTEL upper limits
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…
The Comptel 1.809 Mev Survey
S. Plueschke, R. Diehl, V. Schoenfelder +8
We present the latest update of the 1.809 MeV sky survey obtained with COMPTEL. Based on all observations taken since the launch of CGRO in spring 1991 to early summer this year we…
