Contents
Compton telescopes rely on the dominant interaction mechanism in the MeV gamma-ray energy range: Compton scattering. By precisely recording the position and energy of multiple Compton scatter interactions in a detector volume, a photon's original direction and energy can be recovered. These powerful survey instruments can have wide fields of view,...
