CGRO Guest Investigator Program: Cycle 7, Pt. 1 Pt. 2, Exploring the Gamma-Ray Sky at 2.2 MeV COMPTEL Observations of Soft X-Ray Transients

摘要

The goal of this project was to search for a counterpart to an apparent point source of 2.2 MeV gamma-rays that had been detected using data from the COMPTEL experiment on CGRO. The source detected by COMPTEL was of marginal significance (less than 4(sigma)) and a further, independent, confirmation by OSSE was highly desired. Unfortunately, the planned CGRO observations (with both COMPTEL and OSSE) during cycle 7 were superseded by ToO observations of SN 1998bu.
