Abstract (Abridged) This proposal is a continuation of the on-going (AO4--AO5) program of making a several Msec-long series of multiple latitude scans of selected regions of the Galactic disk. Even although our AO4 and AO5 accepted proposals are not yet completed, our analysis of first 4 Msec of already performed observations showed that this technique of studying the extended/diffuse high-energy emission of the Galaxy is very successful in minimizing systematic errors associated with the SPI and ISGRI detectors background variations and thus providing a clean emission spectrum of the Galactic disk, limited only by the photon counting statistics. In this proposal we selected three regions in the Galaxy for dissections -- l~40,22.5, -30 -- which will be complimentary to the already performed observations of the inner Galaxy

Mission Description The INTEGRAL (International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory) mission, launched by the European Space Agency (ESA) on October 17, 2002, was designed to study high-energy phenomena in the universe. INTEGRAL was operating until february 2025 and it was equipped with three high-energy instruments: the Imager on Board the INTEGRAL Satellite (IBIS), the Spectrometer on INTEGRAL (SPI), and the JEM-X (Joint European Monitor for X-rays). Its Optical Monitoring Camera (OMC) provided optical V-band magnitude measurements, complementing the high-energy observations.
