Extragalactic Diffuse Gamma-ray Background

Extragalactic Diffuse Gamma-Ray Background is a diffuse emission component in gamma-ray astronomy, comprising isotropic and extragalactic gamma-ray photons originating beyond the Milky Way, distinguished from galactic and resolved point-source emissions by its all-sky, non-anisotropic distribution and extragalactic provenance.
