Abstract:

Exploring the Nonthermal Universe with High Energy Gamma Rays

Cosmic gamma rays carry key information about high energy phenomena in a variety of astrophysical environments. Being a part of modern astrophysics and astroparticle physics, gamma-ray astronomy is a discipline in its own right. It addresses an impressively broad range of topics related to the nonthermal Universe – acceleration, propagation, and radiation of relativistic particles on all astronomical scales: from compact objects like

pulsars (neutron stars) and microquasars (accreting black holes) to giant radiogalaxies and galaxy clusters. I will briefly describe the status and discuss the objectives of the field with an emphasis on three major topics: Origin of Cosmic Rays, Physics and Astrophysics of relativistic outflows, and cosmological issues related to the intergalactic radiation and magnetic fields
