Compton models of the isotropic x-ray background
Creators
Description
It is shown that the spectral shape of the X-ray flux arising from Compton scattering of fast electrons on the microwave background radiation, contrary to a recent assertion, is not inconsistent with present observations of the isotropic X-ray background. Subject headings: cosmic background radiation - X-rays
