Gamma-Ray Background: Fluctuations, Gamma-Ray Background: Blazars

Scientific paper

Blazars, a class of active galactic nuclei recently discovered by the EGRET mounted on the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory as emitting very high-energy γ-rays, have been proposed as the sources for the multi-GeV extragalactic γ-ray background. Using a relation between the radio and the γ-ray luminosities for these sources, the authors present simulated fine-scale angular fluctuation patterns in this background as functions of observational energies. They predict some features, observable by high-resolution γ-rays telescopes, which may identify blazars as the major contributors in forming the high-energy extragalactic γ-ray background.
