The Cosmological Optical Convergence: Extragalactic Background Light from TeV Gamma Rays
The intensity of the extragalactic background (EBL), the accumulated optical and infrared emissions since the first stars, is the subject of a decades-long tension in the optical band. These photons form a target field that attenuates the γ-ray flux from extragalactic sources. This Letter reports the first γ-ray measurement of the EBL spectrum at z
