Scientific paper

A digitized spark chamber was launched aboard two balloons from Resende, Brazil in order to determine the diffuse component of gamma radiation in the 15 to 75 MeV range arriving from near the galactic center. In each of the two flights, the detector reached an altitude of 2.2 g/sq cm. Based on these data, photons/sq cm.s.sterad.MeV was obtained at energies of 21, 36, 52 and 67 MeV respectively. These values give a power law spectrum with spetral index equal to -3.3. The dependence of this radiation with the galactic latitude and longitude in the interval 355 deg or = lambda (11) or = 375 deg was also obtained. Results were compared with those of other experimenters.
