Scientific paper

Compact astrophysical sources of energetic particles and photons are somewhat optically thick to particle-particle, particle-photon and photon-photon interactions. These interactions include pair production and annihilation, Compton and inverse Compton scattering, and electron-electron collisions (including bremsstrahlung). The authors present preliminary results from a calculation in which they evaluate the modulation of an initial source spectrum by these processes in an expanding relativistic electron-photon wind.
