The 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...
متن کاملExtragalactic Gamma-ray Sources
This chapter provides a review of γ-ray sources lying at high Galactic latitudes. Their statistical properties and variability status, as well as studies involving cross correlations with lower frequency catalogs and multiwavelength observations, are summarized. The case for active galactic nuclei is analyzed with special emphasis, since they represent the largest population of high energy sour...
متن کاملThe Extragalactic Diffuse Gamma-Ray Emission
The all-sky surveys in γ-rays by the imaging Compton telescope (COMPTEL) and the Energetic Gamma Ray Experiment Telescope (EGRET) on board the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory for the first time allows detailed studies of the extragalactic diffuse emission at γ-ray energies greater 1 MeV. A preliminary analysis of COMPTEL data indicates a significant decrease in the level of the derived cosmic dif...
متن کاملGLAST and the Extragalactic Gamma Ray Background
We show that GLAST should be able to support or rule out the unresolved-blazar hypothesis for the origin of the diffuse, extragalactic gamma ray background.
