In this paper we study the formation of giant electron–positron pair halos around the powerful high energy extragalactic sources. We investigate the dependence of radiation of pair halos, in particular the spectral and angular distributions on the energy spectrum of the primary gamma rays, the redshift of the source, and the flux of the extragalactic background light.
