The PICsIT detector shadowgrams for single (left) and multiple (right) events. The diagram was generated at a time when only 3 out of the 8 modules had their VETO system switched on. The image shows how the VETO system reduces efficiently the background noise by suppressing the events entering the detector from behind. (Courtesy: IBIS team)
