Cosmic Star Formation Rate From Gamma-Ray Attenuation
T. M. Kneiske, K. Mannheim
Abstract
We compute the attenuation of gamma-rays from remote quasars due to interactions with ambient low-energy photons produced by stars in galaxies and show that the next-generation gamma ray telescopes can probe the cosmic star formation rate at high redshifts.
