Gamma-ray observations of the galactic centre.

Abstract

Review of observation data obtained with a portable gas-Cerenkov gamma-ray telescope flown twice from Parana, Argentina (31.8 deg S), to search for gamma radiation from the galactic center. The angular resolution of this detector is not good enough to resolve the source structure controversy, i.e. whether the gamma radiation is coming from point sources or from a diffuse source along the galactic plane. Comparisons with observation data of other investigators are presented and discussed.
