Scientific paper

Theories of the X-ray background are analyzed. Starburst and probably hard X-ray binary models can be dismissed on the basis of exorbitant energy requirements while the hot diffuse intergalactic medium fails to reproduce the residual spectrum. Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) models are only viable if there is a class of AGN which puts out the bulk of its energy in the hard X-rays.
