Description

A theory for the γ-ray background involving cosmic-ray interactions at high redshifts has been re-examined using improved computational techniques and more realistic radiation fields. Comparison with observations shows good overall agreement but a possible discrepancy in the 10 to 100 MeV range. (author)
