Very high energy gamma-ray astronomy. (Invited review).

CATANESE M. and WEEKES T.C.

Abstract (from CDS):

We present a review of the current status of very high energy γ-ray astronomy. The development of the atmospheric Cerenkov imaging technique for ground-based γ-ray astronomy has led to a rapid growth in the number of observatories. The detection of TeV γ-rays from active galactic nuclei was unexpected and is providing new insights into the emission mechanisms in the jets. Next-generation telescopes are under construction and will increase dramatically the knowledge available at this extreme end of the cosmic electromagnetic spectrum.
