Description
ComPair is a prototype of the probe-class All-Sky Medium Energy Gamma-ray Observatory (AMEGO), which aims to fill the MeV gap. The instrument consists of four detector subsystems: a Silicon strip tracker, CZT and CsI calorimeters, and a plastic scintillator anti-coincidence detector. ComPair completed a 6.5-hour high altitude balloon flight on August 23, 2023 from Fort Sumner, NM. I will present on results from each of the four subsystems' calibration efforts as well as results from the balloon flight. Finally, I will touch on upgrades underway for ComPair 2.
