TL;DR: The International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory (INTEGRAL) as mentioned in this paper is dedicated to the fine spectroscopy (2.5 × 1.5 ) and fine imaging (angular resolution: 12 arcmin FWHM) of celestial gamma-ray sources in the energy range 15 −keV to 10 −MeV with concurrent source monitoring in the X −ray and optical (V −band, 550 −nm) energy ranges.

TL;DR: The IBIS telescope as mentioned in this paper is the high angular resolution gamma-ray imager on-board the INTEGRAL Observatory, which was successfully launched from Baikonur (Kazakhstan) the 17th of October 2002.

TL;DR: Coded aperture imaging in high energy astronomy represents an important technical advance in instrumentation over the full energy range from X-to γ-rays and is playing a unique role in those spectral ranges where other techniques become ineffective or impracticable due to limitations connected to the physics of interactions of photons with matter.

TL;DR: The detection of strong gamma-ray flares observed by the AGILE satellite in September 2010 and October 2007 challenge standard models of nebular emission and require power-law acceleration by shock-driven plasma wave turbulence within an approximately 1-day time scale.

TL;DR: AGILE as mentioned in this paper is an Italian Space Agency mission dedicated to observing the gamma-ray universe, which was successfully launched on 2007 April 23 from the Indian base of Sriharikota and was inserted in an equatorial orbit with very low particle background.
