A Measurement of the Cosmic Optical Background and Diffuse Galactic Light Scaling from the R < 50 au New Horizons-LORRI Data

Direct photometric measurements of the cosmic optical background (COB) provide an important point of comparison to both other measurement methodologies and models of cosmic structure formation, and permit a cosmic consistency test with the potential to reveal additional diffuse sources of emission....
