The imaging Compton telescope COMPTEL is one of the four instruments on board the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory (GRO), which was launched on 1991 April 5 by the space shuttle Atlantis into an Earth orbit of 450 km altitude. COMPTEL is exploring the 1-30 MeV energy range with an angular resolution (1σ) between 1° and 2° within a large field of view of about 1 steradian. Its energy resolution (8.8% FWHM at 1.27 MeV) makes it a powerful gamma-ray line spectrometer. Its effective area (for on-axis incidence) varies between 10 and 50 cm 2 depending on energy and event selections. Within a 14 day observation period COMPTEL is able to detect sources which are about 20 times weaker than the Crab. The measurement principle of COMPTEL also allows the measurements of solar neutrons
