abstract = "Hard X-ray and low-energy gamma-ray coded-aperture imaging (CAI)
instruments have been highly successful as high-energy surveyors
and transient-source discoverers and trackers over the past
decades. Albeit having relatively low sensitivity as compared with
focusing instruments, coded-aperture telescopes still represent a
very good choice for simultaneous, high cadence spectral
measurements of individual point sources in large source fields.
Here, I present a review of the fundamentals of CAI instruments in
high-energy astrophysics, with an emphasis on the fundamental
aspects of the technique, coded-mask instrument characteristics,
and properties of the reconstructed images.",
