Scientific paper

A double coaxial Ge(Li) spectrometer was flown in the Southern Hemisphere to study the induced background at ceiling in the diodes. During the flight, different anticoincidence modes were operated to estimate the local production. The atmospheric 511 KeV line results show that the fluxes detected by the upper diode are in good agreement with previous measurements and indicate a probable contamination of the lower diode. The techniques demonstrate a promising method to reject induced background in the gamma-ray Ge(Li) telescope.
