OSTI ID:4646426
The intensity of gamma , rays due to the decay of pi /sup O/ mesons produced in nuclear collisions of cosmic rays in interstellar and intergalactic space is computed. The intensity of x rays due to magnetic deceleration of pi / sup plus or minus / meson decay electrons (or positrons) is calculated for the same conditions. The gamma and x ray intensities thus obtained are smaller than the cosmic gamma and x ray intensities recorded in several investigations by several orders of magnitude. (auth)
