摘要: A large international collaboration from the high energy astrophysics community has proposed Tracking and Imaging Gamma Ray Experiment (TIGRE) for future space observations. TIGRE will image perform spectroscopy measurements on celestial sources of gamma rays in range 1 to 100 MeV. This been a difficult experimentally ray astronomy but is vital considering recent exciting below above both double scatter Compton pair telescope with direct imaging individual events.Multi‐layers Si strip detectors are used as converters CsI(Tl) scintillation position sensitive calorimeter.
