AbstractAbstract
[en] In this paper the authors report on further development and testing of a Compton Telescope composed of scintillating fibers and position sensitive photomultipliers. Initial tests of the telescope result in a better than 1 mm (rms) position resolution, and in a 17.5 mrad (rms) angular resolution for 1.2 MeV photons from a collimated 60Co gamma source. This type of device can be used for constructing large area telescopes for gamma ray astronomy. The authors are encouraged by the results and working on the development of a larger Compton telescope
