Scientific paper

The Milagro gamma-ray observatory is an extensive air shower detector using the water-Cherenkov technique. A large field of view and high duty cycle provide continuous observations at TeV energies of the northern hemisphere. Observations at these energies are important for understanding the particle behavior and the surrounding environment of active galactic nuclei (AGN) as well as the infrared photon content of extragalactic space. Predictions at TeV energies have been made for a selected set of AGN by modeling the energy spectra using observations at lower energies. I will present results from the Milagro data set for those AGN that fall within Milagro's field of view including effects due to gamma-ray attenuation by extragalactic background light.
