The peak region of the extragalactic background radiation
The Cosmic X-ray background carries the information of cosmic accretion onto super-massive black holes. The intensity at its peak can be used to constrain the integrated space density of highly obscured AGNs. Determining the shape and intensity of the Cosmic X-ray background radiation represents, however, a first step towards the understanding of the population of Comptonthick AGNs. The study o...
متن کاملGalactic Origin of the Alleged Extragalactic Gamma-Ray Background Radiation
The diffuse gamma-ray background radiation (GBR) at high Galactic latitudes could be dominated by inverse Compton scattering (ICS) of cosmic ray (CR) electrons on the cosmic microwave background radiation (CBR) and on starlight (SL) in an extended CR halo of our galaxy. Assuming the locally observed CR electron spectrum beyond a few GeV, which follows from equilibrium between Fermi acceleration...
متن کاملFar infrared extragalactic background radiation: I. Source counts with ISOPHOT
As a part of the ISOPHOT CIRB (Cosmic Infrared Background Radiation) project we have searched for point-like sources in eight fields mapped at two or three wavelengths between 90μm and 180μm. Most of the 55 sources detected are suspected to be extragalactic and cannot be associated with previously known objects. It is probable, also from the far-infrared (FIR) spectral energy distributions, tha...
متن کاملExtragalactic gamma-ray background radiation from dark matter annihilation
If dark matter is composed of neutralinos, one of the most exciting prospects for its detection lies in observations of the gamma-ray radiation created in pair annihilations between neutralinos, a process that may contribute significantly to the extragalactic gamma-ray background (EGB) radiation. We here use the high-resolution MillenniumII simulation of cosmic structure formation to produce th...
متن کاملThe Extragalactic Gamma-Ray Background
The COMPTEL and EGRET detectors aboard the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory measured an extragalactic γ-ray background (EGRB) extending from ∼ 1 MeV to ∼ 100 GeV. Calculations performed making reasonable assumptions indicate that blazars can account for the background between ∼ 10 MeV and ∼ 10 GeV. Below 30 MeV, the background flux and spectrum are not very well determined and a dedicated satellit...
