Probing galaxy formation with high energy gamma-rays

We discuss how measurements of the absorption of gamma -rays from GeV to TeV energies via pair production on the extragalactic background light (EBL) can probe important issues in galaxy formation. We use semi-analytic models (SAMs) of galaxy formation, set within the hierarchical structure formatio...
