Galactic gamma-ray line emission from radioactive isotopes
Abstract
Measurements of the Galactic γ-ray sky in lines attributed to the radioactive decay of 7Be, 22Na, 26Al, 44Ti, 56Ni, and 60Fe are collected, organized, and collated with models for the production sites/mechanisms, spatial distributions, and the chemical evolution of these isotopes.
