GAMMA-LIGHT: High-Energy Astrophysics above 10 MeV
Aldo Morselli, Andrea Argan, Guido Barbiellini +39
High-energy phenomena in the cosmos, and in particular processes leading to the emission of gamma- rays in the energy range 10 MeV - 100 GeV, play a very special role in the unders…
The CHESS survey of the L1157-B1 bow-shock: high and low excitation water vapor
