Scientific paper

Gamma-rays represent one of the most energetic forms of radiation in nature. They carry large quantities of energy radiated from some of the cataclysmic of all astronomical events, including exploding stars, colliding neutron stars, particles trapped in magnetic fields, and matter being swallowed by black holes. Integral's payload instruments - IBIS, OMC, JEM-X and SPI - will study these gamma-rays through detailed imaging and high-resolution spectroscopy, providing astronomers around the world with their clearest views yet of the most extreme environments in our Universe.
