  • Abstract
    Preliminary tests indicate that a suitable electronics subsystem for a large-area, high-resolution gamma-ray spectrometer is well within the present state-of-the-art. This subsystem can be made to operate with sufficient precision within the temperature, power, weight and volume constraints typical for space instruments.
