Scientific paper

IBIS is the high resolution gamma-ray imaging telescope on board INTEGRAL and will provide fine angular resolution of ~12 arcmin, unprecedent source location accuracy of 30 arcsec (for a 10 sigma source strength), wide spectral response (20 keV to 10 MeV), high resolution timing (60 μs) and spectroscopy (7% at 100 keV and 12% at 1 MeV) to satisfy the expected mission objectives. The scientific goal of IBIS is to address, complemented by the high resolution spectrometer (SPI), astrophysical processes from galactic and extragalactic sources and diffuse regions in the energy range spanning from X to gamma-rays.
