gamma-ray telescope

A discovery in 2012 may allow focusing gamma-ray telescopes.

It also possesses a gamma-ray telescope with an ability to determine positions to under a degree.

This was thought to be the limit at that time but a discovery in 2012 may allow focusing gamma-ray telescopes.

Heller was busy with the gamma-ray telescope.

Gamma-ray telescopes use scintillation counters, spark chambers and more recently, solid-state detectors.

Some of these have repeatedly hit orbiting gamma-ray telescopes and sensors on spacecraft, producing a host of false readings.

A gamma-ray telescope Earthside, Jacobson's group I think it was, saw the annihilation line."

Explorer 11 (also known as S15) was an American Earth-orbital satellite that carried the first space-borne gamma-ray telescope.

As with other gamma-ray telescopes, H.E.S.S. observes high energy processes in the universe.

Later, Soviet scientists tried to measure the radiation from a distance using gamma-ray telescopes mounted on two hovering helicopters and on a nearby tank landing ship.

Cosmic rays impacting other planetary bodies in the Solar System are detected indirectly by observing high energy gamma ray emissions by gamma-ray telescope.

The REACT telescope was the first gamma-ray telescope built at Fenton Hill.

X-ray and Gamma-ray telescopes are usually on Earth-orbiting satellites or high-flying balloons since the Earth's atmosphere is opaque to this part of the electromagnetic spectrum.

A fire on the mountainside in 1997 damaged one of the gamma-ray telescopes, but the fire in September 2005 did no serious damage to buildings or telescopes.

The telescope design is based on the design of the existing 10m gamma-ray telescope of the Fred Lawrence Whipple Observatory.

At higher energies, ground-based gamma-ray telescopes have set limits on the annihilation of dark matter in dwarf spheroidal galaxies and in clusters of galaxies.

Gamma-ray telescopes first detected the gamma rays in 1973, but astronomers were unable to detect either a visible object or a source of radio emissions in the right spot.

The Indian Astronomical Observatory (IAO), located near Leh in Ladakh, India, has one of the world's highest sites for optical, infrared and gamma-ray telescopes.

Higher energy X-ray and Gamma-ray telescopes refrain from focusing completely and use coded aperture masks: the patterns of the shadow the mask creates can be reconstructed to form an image.

He also led the Mishap Investigation Board investigating the failure of a balloon launch from Australia carrying a gamma-ray telescope for to the University of California at Berkeley.

Scientists from the California Institute of Technology made the surprising discovery using an automated gamma-ray telescope sent up by balloon to an altitude of 120,000 feet above Alice Springs, Australia.

An improved gamma-ray telescope, also developed at MIT under the direction of W. L. Kraushaar, was flown on the Third Solar Observatory (OSO-3), which was launched in 1967.

Four years ago, when she was pregnant with her second daughter, Giulia, she not only continued to teach throughout the pregnancy but, one month after the baby was born, she submitted a research proposal to develop a gamma-ray telescope for NASA.

During such a flight over Australia, lasting only a few hours, Caltech's gamma-ray telescope was able to single out the supernova and record its emmisions without confusing the supernova with any other nearby source of gamma rays, Dr. Prince said in an interview.
