| Abstract: | We discuss the feasibility of using the coherent electric field in crystal as a means for gamma-ray astronomy. At 100 GeV, pair production is enhanced along the crystalline axis. However, the expected celestial gamma-ray flux at this energy is insufficient for this technique to be viable with a conventional-size satellite detector. |
