This book provides three comprehensive and up-to-date reviews of the recent advances in gamma-ray astrophysics and of multi-messenger astronomy. Felix Aharonian and Charles Dermer address our current knowledge on the sources of GeV and TeV photons, gleaned from the precise measurements made by the new instrumentation. Lars Bergström presents the challenges and prospects of astro-particle physics with a particular emphasis on the detection of dark matter candidates. The topics covered by the 40th Saas-Fee Course present the capabilities of current instrumentation and the physics at play in sources of very-high-energy radiation to students and researchers alike. This book will encourage and prepare readers for using space and ground-based gamma-ray observatories, as well as neutrino and other multi-messenger detectors.Saas-Fee Advanced Course,1861-7980 ;40Nuclear astrophysicsAstrophysicsNuclear astrophysics.Astrophysics.522.686Aharonian Felix A621269Bergstrom Lars542465Dermer Charles1595918Schweizerische Gesellschaft für Astrophysik und Astronomie.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910739465903321Astrophysics at very high energies4192235UNINA
