Observations in the past decade using both space- and ground-based experiments have been primarily responsible for giving a tremendous boost to our knowledge of the high energy Universe. High energy gamma-rays have been detected from a wide range of Galactic and extragalactic astrophysical sources, such as gamma-ray bursters, pulsars, and active galaxies. These observations have established high energy gamma-ray astronomy as a vital and exciting field, that has a bright future. This review summarizes the experimental techniques, observations and results obtained with recent experiments, and concludes with a short description of future prospects.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2000-09-22T15:31:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "high energy gamma rays", "established high energy gamma-ray astronomy", "observations", "high energy universe", "past decade" ], "tags": [ "conference paper", "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 534083 } } }
