Fitting Zodiacal Models
Abstract
Models of the zodiacal light are necessary to convert measured data taken from low Earth orbit into the radiation field outside the solar system. The uncertainty in these models dominates the overall uncertainty in determining the extragalactic background light for wavelengths < 100 microns.
