SPI observations of the diffuse 60Fe emission in the Galaxy
W. Wang, M. J. Harris, R. Diehl +12
Gamma-ray line emission from radioactive decay of 60Fe provides constraints on nucleosynthesis in massive stars and supernovae. The spectrometer SPI on board INTEGRAL has accumulat…
MGGPOD: A Monte Carlo Suite for Gamma Ray Astronomy -- Version 1.1
G. Weidenspointner, S. J. Sturner, E. I. Novikova +6
We announce the forthcoming public release of Version 1.1 of MGGPOD, a user-friendly suite of Monte Carlo codes built around the widely used GEANT (Version 3.21) package. MGGPOD is…
High resolution gamma ray spectroscopy of flares on the east and west limbs of the Sun
M. J. Harris, V. Tatischeff, J. Kiener +2
A new generation of Ge-based high-resolution gamma-ray spectrometers has allowed accurate measurements to be made of the profiles, widths and energies of the gamma-ray lines emitte…
The Advanced Compton Telescope Mission
Steven E. Boggs, James Kurfess, James Ryan +30
The Advanced Compton Telescope (ACT), the next major step in gamma-ray astronomy, will probe the fires where chemical elements are formed by enabling high-resolution spectroscopy o…
The sky distribution of positronium annihilation continuum emission measured with SPI/INTEGRAL
G. Weidenspointner, C. R. Shrader, J. Knoedlseder +15
We present a measurement of the sky distribution of positronium (Ps) annihilation continuum emission obtained with the SPI spectrometer on board ESA's INTEGRAL observatory. The onl…
Detection of gamma-ray lines from interstellar 60Fe by the high resolution spectrometer SPI
M. J. Harris, J. Knodlseder, P. Jean +6
It is believed that core-collapse supernovae (CCSN), occurring at a rate about once per century, have seeded the interstellar medium with long-lived radioisotopes such as 60Fe (hal…
