Particular features of γ radiation from active galactic nuclei

  • Published:
Bulletin of the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory

Abstract

The luminosity of γ radiation from active galactic nuclei is shown to grow with increasing distance to the object. Absorbance of very high-energy γ quanta is far less than the values published so far. High-energy particles are accelerated more effectively when the galactic radiation is enhanced.
