17. Measuring EBL(z). Tools : sources with sound modeling & minimum number of parameters  BLLacs !? (l.o.s. orientation, jet-only emission, single-zone SSC). 1) Based on GeV data, set up a list of BLLacs whose predicted VHE flux is detectable with IACTs. Populate redshift space (out to z ~ 1) as closely as possible. 2) For each BLLac source, obtain simultaneous well-sampled mwl SEDs (at optical, X-ray, HE, and VHE frequencies) corresponding to different source states (low, high). This amounts to having several SEDs at each given z. Since in such SEDs the Compton peak typically occurs in the EBL-unaffected region 100 GeV) is known and can be assumed to represent the intrinsic VHE source spectrum. Contrasting it with data (measured between photon energies E 1 and E 2 ), we obtain n EBL (z) at redshift z and in the energy interval between, locally at redshift z, 0.5/[E 2 (1+ z )] eV and 0.5/[E 1 (1+ z )] eV. 3) Repeating procedure (2) with different SEDs (i.e.: different sources, or same source in different emission states) at the same z, in principle we should obtain consistent determinations of the EBL. In practice, we will reduce the statistic error affecting each determination of n EBL ( z ). 4) Selecting BLLac objects progressively farther away, we will measure EBL at different z. By repeating steps (2),(3) we will in principle obtain measures of n EBL (z) -- out to z ~1.
