The gas scintillation proportional counter on Exosat
TL;DR: The inclusion of a gas scintillation proportional counter (GSPC) within the EXOSAT payload complement significantly improves the spectroscopic capability of the mission as mentioned in this paper, and this broad-band medium energy spectrometer used in conjunction with the large area proportioni counter array (ME) should provide additional spectroscopy details on strong X-ray sources at photon energies above 2 keV.

The gas scintillation proportional counter in the spacelab environment: in-flight performance and post-flight calibration
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the in-orbit performance of the gas scintillation proportional counter (GSPC) which formed part of the Spacelab-1 payload, and show that discontinuities in the instrument gain are similar to those of the xenon-filled GSPC's on the EXOSAT and TENMA satellites.

X-ray Gas Scintillation Spectrometer Experiment
TL;DR: The results presented here show new results from two galactic binary x-ray sources, Cygnus X-3 and CentaurusX-3, and from the Perseus cluster of galaxies.

TL;DR: The first spacelab mission, launched on Space ShuttleFlight STS-9 in November 1983 carried a multidisciplinary payload which was intended to demonstrate that valuable scientific results can be achieved from such short duration missions as discussed by the authors.
