Description

On 1973 February 27, -ray measurements in the energy range 1.5-10 MeV were performed with a balloon-borne double Compton-telescope from Palestine, Texas. From these observations, upper limits to the gamma ray flux from seven X-ray sources and from the galactic plane around 111 - 70 could be derived. Sitbject headings: Galaxy, The - gamma rays - X-ray sources
