Research Abstract

We have developed a combination of the gamma-ray lens and Compton camera for a purpose of opening a new door in the gamma-ray astronomy. A prototype of gamma-ray lens which can condense gamma-ray photons was used for obtaining fundamental properties, and an engineering model of the camera was newly developed as a demonstration equipment for on-board hardware of a spacecraft.
