| description | Space-based astronomy of hard X-rays and gamma rays covers more than seven
orders of magnitude in photon energy, from 10 keV to several hundred GeV.
Detecting cosmic photons in this energy range is a challenge, due to the
relatively low probability of interaction of high-energy photons with matter
and the high background noise generated in space detectors by environmental
charged particles and radiation. However, the development of new detection
technologies is constantly improving the performance of space-based X- and
gamma-ray telescopes. This chapter presents the different detectors used in
this field of astronomy, their configuration within space telescopes and some
proposals for new instruments. |
