In this paper, I present a summary of the status of γ-ray astronomy in the very high energy band (E > 50GeV), as of early 2007. It covers a selection of results obtained from observations made by ground-based detectors using the atmospheric Cherenkov or air shower techniques, together with short descriptions of some of the present and future ...

High-Energy Gamma-Ray Astronomy [PDF]
This volume celebrates the 30th anniversary of the first very-high energy (VHE) gamma-ray Source detection: the Crab Nebula, observed by the pioneering ground-based Cherenkov telescope Whipple, at teraelectronvolts (TeV) energies, in 1989.

Experimental Measurements and Computer Simulation of Fission Product Gamma-Ray Spectra [PDF]
Airborne gamma ray spectrometry using high volume scintillation detectors, optionally in conjunction with Ge detectors, has potential for making rapid environmental measurements in response to nuclear accidents. An experimental investigation and computer

The Crab Pulsar and Nebula as Seen in Gamma-Rays
Slightly more than 30 years ago, Whipple detection of the Crab Nebula was the start of Very High Energy gamma-ray astronomy. Since then, gamma-ray observations of this source have continued to provide new surprises and challenges to theories, with the ...

Gamma ray astronomy with IceCube [PDF]
We demonstrate that the South Pole kilometer-scale neutrino observatory IceCube can detect multi-TeV gamma rays continuously over a large fraction of the southern sky. While not as sensitive as pointing atmospheric Cerenkov telescopes, IceCube can roughly match the sensitivity of Milagro.

Cosmic gamma rays, the physical processes responsible for their production and the astrophysical sites from which they were seen are reported. The bulk of the observed gamma ray emission is in the photon energy range from about 0.1 MeV to 1 GeV, where observations are carried out above the atmosphere.
