Modeling the galactic diffuse gamma-ray emission

The diffuse gamma-ray emission in our Galaxy is produced by highly energetic electrons interacting mainly with radiation fields through inverse Compton scattering or in interactions with interstellar matter through Bremsstrahlung. Furthermore, protons also interact with the interstellar matter and produce gamma-rays through the production of pion particles and their subsequent decay. The energy range of gamma-ray emission covers the domain from a few MeV (1 MeV = 106 eV) up to energies > 100 TeV (1 TeV = 1012 eV). In this work a model to predict the diffuse gamma-ray emission is presented. The general idea of this model is to simulate a population of galactic sources, which accelerate protons and electrons, distributed according to the populations of supernova remnants and pulsars at radio wavelengths. Through the previously mentioned interaction processes, the diffuse gamma-ray emission spectrum can be predicted for different regions of the Galaxy. The goal of this thesis is to produce the spectrum of diffuse gamma-ray emission for the two different regions of the Galaxy at l=344 longitude, b=0 latitude and at l=344 longitude, b=4 latitude
