• Long history of more than 40 years. Significant progresses in recent ears b Air Cherenko Telescopes and Fermiyears by Air Cherenkov Telescopes and Fermi.
• Fermi view of GRBs:>240 GRBs, 9 detected by LAT (as of June 2009)240 GRBs, 9 detected by LAT (as of June 2009)GRB080916C & GRB090510
strongly constrains the bulk Lorentz factor, Lorentz invariance, etc..• CR electrons by Fermi + PAMELA and other data.
L l i dLocal sources are required. Nearby mature pulsars. Constrains on DM scenario
• Diffuse gamma-rays as a probe of Galactic CRsnon-GeV-excess Local CRs close to those measured at the Earchnon GeV excess. Local CRs close to those measured at the Earch.Is able to map out CR distribution in the Galaxy
• Found extended sources positionally associated with SNR. Resolved LMC for the first time. BL Lacs are favored (than FSRQs) as the origin
