Scientific paper

Located in the French Pyrénées, CELESTE was the first ground based detector with an energy threshold below 100 GeV. It took data between 1998 and 2004, and allowed flux measurements from the Crab nebula and from the blazars Mrk 421 and Mrk 501. Galactic diffuse gamma-ray emission is the most significant around the Galactic plane, [-5,+5] degrees of Galactic latitude. From the large samples on the Crab Nebula, we have selected Crab OFF data with different Galactic latitudes, in order to analyse the diffuse emission. After criteria applied on sky position, atmospheric conditions and detector stability, we obtain 108 min of data in the Galactic anticentre region, providing a new limit on the diffuse emission with ACT detectors.
