Search for discrete gamma-ray sources emitting at energies greater than 1015 eV

  • 1. Institut fuer Reine und Angewandte Kernphysik, University of Kiel

Description

The data of the extensive air shower experiment at Kiel have been scanned systematically for possible discrete γ-ray sources in the energy range E>1015 eV and in the declination band delta = 250-750. Photon fluxes for celestial positions with the statistically most significant excesses of showers and 3 sigma upper limit photon fluxes for COS B γ-ray sources visible to the extensive air shower experiment at Kiel are presented
