In spite of the recent successes of SIGMA, RXTE andCompton GRO, and the launch of INTEGRAL in 2001, a lot ofquestions will stay opened for the next decades in gamma-ray astronomy.In this context we have to think about future instrument concepts whichwill allow a new step in the understanding of high-energy phenomena atwork in many exciting objects: binary systems with compact objects,active galactic nuclei, supernovae and novae, gamma ray bursters...A short overview of these new types of instruments will be given. 相似文献

We present the final part of the catalog of cosmic gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) observed in the PHEBUS experiment on the Granat orbiting astrophysical observatory. The first three parts of the catalog were published by Terekhov et al. (1994, 1995a) and Tkachenko et al. (1998). The fourth part contains information on 32 events recorded from October 1994 until December 1996. We give burst light curves in the energy range 100 keV to 1.6 MeV, integrated energy spectra, and information on the fluence and energy flux at the luminosity peak for energies above 100 keV. Over the entire period of its operation, the PHEBUS instrument detected 206 cosmic GRBs. The mean ?V/Vmax? was 0.336±0.007. The mean hardness corresponding to the ratio of count numbers in the energy ranges 400–1000 and 100–400 keV is 0.428±0.018 for events with a duration shorter than 2 s and 0.231±0.004 for events with a duration longer than 2 s. 相似文献

The PHEBUS instrument aboard the GRANAT observatory is able to record spectra of gamma-ray bursts in a broad energy range from 0.1 to 100 MeV. Over 180 bursts were observed by PHEBUS during five years of operation. They represent a very rich sample of events widely differing in durations, light curves and energy spectra. The problem of burst behaviour in the decay phase of the GRB events is discussed in this paper. We present here the results of the search for emission from GRB sources in 100 keV - 100 MeV range after the main burst has finished. Presence of extended emission was found in about 10% of the gamma-ray bursts detected by PHEBUS. 相似文献

The FREnch GAmma-ray TElescope (FREGATE) on board HETE, is aimed to provide accurate spectral information on-ray bursts at low energies. Four cleaved NaI crystals provide a good sensitivity between 5 keV and 400 keV. In this paper we describe the main characteristics of this instrument: its geometry, energy resolution, and sensitivity, as well as the modes of operation and the data recorded. 相似文献

We present the observations of cosmic gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with the main detector of the SIGMA telescope onboard the Granat Observatory from January 1990 through September 1994. The observations were carried out in the energy range 35–1300 keV. We detected 36 GRBs and 31 high-energy solar flares during this period. No GRB fell within the main field of view; they were all recorded by the “secondary optics” of the telescope. The SIGMA telescope recorded relatively bright bursts with peak fluxes of 10?6–10?4 erg s?1 cm?2 in the 100–500-keV energy band. Stable detector background allows the long-term variability of GRB sources on a time scale of ～1000 s to be studied. The results of our search for early afterglows of GRBs are presented. The flux averaged over all bursts in the interval 100–800 s after the main event is 0.36±0.14 counts s?(35–300 keV), suggesting that there is soft gamma-ray emission on this time scale after a considerable number of GRBs. 相似文献

A -burst monitoring network, involving an eccentric satellite and two interplanetary spacecraft, is planned for completion in 1977. the satellite in earth orbit will have 2 sets of scintillation counters with moderate spatial resolution, covering an energy range of 20 keV-1 MeV, and viewing about 2 steradians. Each of the interplanetary probes will have one set of scintillation counters. The intersatellite timing accuracy will be about 10 ms, which will permit the determination of the arrival direction withon about 5 are min. Special attention is given to fine time resolution and the detection of bursts with relatively long onset times.Paper presented at the COSPAR Symposium on Fast Transients in X-and Gamma-Rays, held at Varna, Bulgaria, 29–31 May, 1975. 相似文献

The three-satellite SIGNE network has observed 26 confirmed gamma-ray bursts in the period September 1978–June 1979. Burst time histories may be used to define several classes of events, with a strong resemblance between events in a given class, but different arrival directions. The spectra of two gamma-ray bursts have been found to evolve from shapes which turn over at low energy during the start of the event, to near power law spectra at the end of the event.Paper presented at the Symposium on Cosmic Gamma-Ray Bursts held at Toulouse, France, 26–29 November, 1979. 相似文献

The basic features of crystal diffraction and their application to the construction of a crystal diffraction lens for focusing energetic gamma rays are described using examples from the work performed at the Argonne National Laboratory. Both on-axis and off-axis performance are discussed. The review includes the use of normal crystals, bent crystals, and crystals with variable crystal-plane spacing to develop both condenser-type lenses and point-to-point imaging lenses. 相似文献

The November 22, 1977 solar flare was observed at energies up to 4.9 MeV by French-built gamma ray detectors aboard the Soviet Prognoz-6 satellite. The data show evidence for 2.23 and 4.43 MeV line emission, with the 2.23 MeV emission occurring about 3 min after the flare onset in hard X-rays. The line intensities, 0.11 cm–2s–1 and 0.06 cm–2s–1 for the 2.23 and 4.43 lines, respectively, are roughly comparable to intensities observed in other events. Particle detectors aboard the Prognoz-6 satellite, however, recorded a proton flux much lower than that observed for the 4 August 1972 event. It is shown that this may be taken as evidence for a thick target interpretation of the proton interactions in the solar atmosphere. 相似文献

The next generation of instrumentation for nuclear astrophysics will have to achieve a factor of 10–100 improvement in sensitivity over present technologies. With the focusing gamma-ray telescope MAX we take up this challenge: combining unprecedented sensitivity with high spectral and angular resolution, and the capability of measuring the polarization of the incident photons. The feasibility of such a crystal diffraction gamma-ray lens has recently been demonstrated with the prototype lens CLAIRE. MAX is a proposed mission which will make use of satellite formation flight to achieve 86 m focal length, with the Laue lens being carried by one satellite and the detector by the other. In the current design, the Laue diffraction lens of MAX will consist of 13740 copper and germanium (Ge1−x

, x ∼ 0.02) crystal tiles arranged on 36 concentric rings. It simultaneously focuses in two energy bands, each centred on one of the main scientific objectives of the mission: the 800–900 keV band is dedicated to the study of nuclear gamma-ray lines from type Ia supernovae (e.g. 56 Co decay line at 847 keV) while the 450–530 keV band focuses on electron-positron annihilation (511 keV emission) from the Galactic centre region with the aim of resolving potential point sources. MAX promises a breakthrough in the study of point sources at gamma-ray energies by combining high narrow-line sensitivity (better than 10−6 cm−2 s−1) and high energy resolution (E/dE ∼ 500). The mission has successfully undergone a pre-phase A study with the French Space Agency CNES, and continues to evolve: new diffracting materials such as bent or composite crystals seem very promising.
