    |  | Effective area versus photon
      energy for normal incidence. Green and blue curves - CYGAM telescope (squares - no
      constraints on the angle a,
      triangles - a<0.50 );
      red curve - EGRET telescope.  |

 | Effective area versus
      photon incidence angle to relative the longitudinal telescope axis (squares -
      no constraints on the angle a,
      triangles - a<0.50,
      spectral index g=2).  |  
    |  | Angular resolution versus
      photon energy for normal incidence. Green and blue curves- CYGAM telescope (squares - no constraints on the angle a,
      triangles - a<0,50); red curve -
      EGRET telescope.  |  
    |  | Angular resolution for
      normal to the axis X incidence versus source power law spectrum index (squares- no constraints on
      the angle a, triangles- a<0,5 0).  |  
    |  | Angular resolution
      versus photon incidence angle relative to the longitudinal telescope axis (squares - no constraints on
      the angle a, triangles - a<0,5 0,
      spectral index g=2).  |  
    |  | Minimum detectable
      flux of a compact source versus the source power law spectrum index (a<0,5 0,
      one year of observation).
 
 |  
    |  | Source location capability for
      a year of observation for a source with the flux 10 8 cm-2 s 1 
      (Eg>1GeV)
      versus the source power law spectrum index.  |  
    |  | Relative accuracy of 
      spectral index estimation after a year of observation for a source  with the flux
      10 8 cm -2 s 1 (Eg>1GeV) 
      versus the source power law spectrum index.
