Attenuation of TeV γ-rays by the starlight photon field of the host galaxy

The absorption of TeV γ-ray photons produced in relativistic jets by surrounding soft photon fields is a long-standing problem of jet physics. In some cases, the most likely emission site close to the central black hole is ruled out because of the high opacity caused by strong optical and infrared p...
