Hi,
I'm trying to reproduce the diffuse emission spectra from GALPROP used in the Fermi paper
http://arxiv.org/pdf/0912.0973 "Fermi Large Area Telescope Measurement of the Diffuse Gamma-Ray Emission at Intermediate Galactic Latitudes ".
Therefore I copied the datapoints for the GALPROP prediction in Fig. 2, page 5 in the cited paper and tried to reproduce these points with the Galprop webrun v54.
For pion decay and bremsstrahlung it looks very fine. However for IC the fermi model is a factor 2 above the prediction of the conventional model I use (see attached plot).
Can you think of any reason for this? How can it be that the bremsstrahlung emission is the same for both models but the IC isn't? Can this have something to do with another ISRF model used by the Fermi people?
A typical GALDEF file that I'm using is attached.
Many thanks,
Gerrit
