Bignami, G. F.; Hermsen, W.; Masnou, J. L. +7 more

Results are reported for a search for gamma-ray sources based on data obtained by the COS B satellite. Ten previously unknown sources were discovered which appear to be galactic and which have typical gamma-ray luminosities of 10 to the 35th power erg/s above 100 MeV. The latitude distribution of the sources is taken as an immediate indication of …
