A radiation transfer model for the Milky Way: I. Radiation fields and application to high-energy astrophysics★
We present a solution for the ultraviolet (UV) - submillimeter (submm) interstellar radiation fields (ISRFs) of the Milky Way, derived from modelling COBE, IRAS and Planck maps of the all-sky emission in the near-, mid-, far-infrared and submm.The analysis uses the axisymmetric radiative transfer (RT) model that we have previously …
