RHESSI as a Hard X-Ray Polarimeter
M. L. McConnell, J. M. Ryan, D. M. Smith +2
Polarization measurements of hard X-rays from solar flares can provide a direct handle on the extent to which the accelerated electrons are beamed, which, in turn, has important im…
COMPTEL Observations of the Gamma-Ray Blazar PKS 1622-297
S. Zhang, W. Collmar, K. Bennett +7
We report results of observations and analyses on the gamma-ray blazar PKS 1622-297, with emphasis on the COMPTEL data (0.75 - 30 MeV) collected between April 1991 and November 199…
The Crab pulsar in the 0.75-30 MeV range as seen by CGRO COMPTEL
L. Kuiper, W. Hermsen, G. Cusumano +5
We present the time-averaged characteristics of the Crab pulsar in the 0.75-30 MeV energy window using data from the imaging Compton Telescope COMPTEL aboard the Compton Gamma-Ray…
The Development of Coplanar CZT Detectors for Gamma-Ray Astronomy
M. L. McConnell, L. A. Hamel, J. R. Macri +2
The development of CdZnTe detectors with an orthogpnal coplanar anode structure has important implications for future astrophysical instrumentation. As electron-only devices, like…
The first COMPTEL Source Catalogue
V. Schoenfelder, the COMPTEL Collaboration
The imaging Compton telescope COMPTEL aboard NASA's Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory has opened the MeV gamma-ray band as a new window to astronomy. COMPTEL provided the first complet…
A High Sensitivity Measurement of the MeV Gamma-Ray Spectrum of Cygnus X-1
M. L. McConnell, J. M. Ryan, W. Collmar +9
The Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory (CGRO) has observed the Cygnus region on several occasions since its launch in 1991. The data collected by the COMPTEL experiment on CGRO represen…
Milagrito: a TeV air-shower array
The Milagro Collaboration, R. Atkins
Milagrito, a large, covered water-Cherenkov detector, was the world's first air-shower-particle detector sensitive to cosmic gamma rays below 1 TeV. It served as a prototype for th…
TeV Observations of Markarian 501 with the Milagrito Water Cherenkov Detector
R. Atkins
The Milagrito water Cherenkov detector near Los Alamos, New Mexico, operated as a sky monitor at energies of a few TeV between February 1997 and May 1998 including the period of th…
