Gamma-ray astronomy - An experiment to detect y-rays of energy above 1000 GeV from Cygnus X-3

High energy y-rays, of energies greater than 1012 eV, have been detected from Cyg X-3 (Vladimirski et al. 1973; Mukanov et al. 1979). In both experiments, 1.5 m diameter flux collectors were used to detect optical Cherenkov radiation from the small electron showers in the atmosphere. The background...
