  9. Imaging to Spectroscopy Comparison • Imaged / Spectral NC count ratios are consistent with 1 • NC line counts are from a compact source • Ions are flare-accelerated

  11. Status of 511 keV line Imaging 20 January 2005 06:44 – 07:00 • Imaging in the 500-520 keV band is yielding weak detections with 9R and 9F. • No detections with other RMCs • 9F imaged flux is consistently higher than 9R • At least 50% of imaged 500-520 keV flux is from continuum • Continuum imaged flux is consistently higher in 9F than 9R  Off-diagonal response is important.  No useful positron annihilation line imaging yet.
