As we entered a new era in TeV astronomy, with the imminent start of operations of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) and new facilities such as LHAASO and the proposed Southern Wide-Field Gamma-ray Observatory (SWGO), we conceived of this volume as a broad reflection on how far we have evolved in the astrophysics topics that dominated the field of TeV astronomy for much of recent history.In the past two decades, H.E.S.S., MAGIC and VERITAS pushed the field of TeV astronomy, consolidating the field of TeV astrophysics, from few to hundreds of TeV emitters. Today, this is a mature field, covering almost every topic of modern astrophysics. TeV astrophysics is also at the center of the multi-messenger astrophysics revolution, as the extreme photon energies involved provide an effective probe in cosmic-ray acceleration, propagation and interaction, in dark matter and exotic physics searches. The improvement that CTA will carry forward and the fact that CTA will operate as the first open observatory in the field, mean that gamma-ray astronomy is about to enter a new precision and productive era.This book aims to serve as an introduction to the field and its state of the art, presenting a series of authoritative reviews on a broad range of topics in which TeV astronomy provided essential contributions, and where some of the most relevant questions for future research lie. 517 $aHigh-Energy Gamma-Ray Astronomy 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 606 $aMathematics & science$2bicssc 610 $agamma ray astronomy 610 $aimaging atmospheric Cherenkov technique 610 $aTeV gamma-rays 610 $anon-thermal radiation 610 $akeV-TeV cosmic sources 610 $aINTEGRAL legacy data base 610 $arelativistic astrophysics 610 $agamma rays 610 $acosmic rays 610 $ainterstellar medium 610 $aMilky Way 610 $agalaxies 610 $aradiation mechanisms: non-thermal 610 $ahigh energy astrophysics 610 $abackground radiation 610 $aphoton-photon interaction 610 $apair production 610 $aaxion-like particles 610 $agamma-rays 610 $aIACTs 610 $aintergalactic magnetic fields 610 $ahigh-energy gamma rays 610 $aelectromagnetic cascades 610 $apevatrons 610 $aGalactic cosmic rays 610 $aPeVatron 610 $aCrab Nebula 610 $aangular resolution 610 $aenergy spectral distribution 610 $a?-ray astronomy 610 $avery-high-energy gamma-ray astrophysics 610 $aastroparticle physics 610 $aimaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes 610 $aQuantum Gravity 610 $aLorentz invariance violation 610 $atime of flight 610 $amodified photon interactions 610 $avery-high-energy gamma-ray astronomy 610 $aopen science 610 $adata format 610 $amulti-messenger 610 $areal-time 610 $ahigh-energy 610 $aalerts 610 $avery-high-energy ?-ray astronomy 610 $aatmospheric Cherenkov telescopes 610 $asource catalogues 610 $agamma-ray astronomy 610 $aCherenkov telescopes 610 $aISM: supernova remnants 610 $aISM: individual objects-Crab Nebula 610 $apulsars: general 610 $aradiation mechanisms: nonthermal 610 $agamma rays: general 610 $aacceleration of particles 610 $aastrophysical plasmas 610 $aMHD 610 $ahigh-energy gamma-ray astrophysics 610 $aGamma-ray bursts 610 $anon-thermal emission 610 $aradiative processes 610 $avery-high energy Gamma-rays 610 $astatistical analysis 610 $alikelihood 610 $abayes 610 $aimaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope 610 $aIACT 610 $aIACT technology 610 $avery high energy gamma-ray telescope 610 $aground-based gamma-ray astrophysics 615 7$aResearch & information: general 615 7$aMathematics & science 700 $ade Almeida$b Ulisses Barres$4edt$01307822 702 $aDoro$b Michele$4edt 702 $ade Almeida$b Ulisses Barres$4oth 702 $aDoro$b Michele$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910639997503321 996 $aHigh-Energy Gamma-Ray Astronomy$93029034 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02760nam 2200637z- 450 001 9910557134003321 005 20210501 035 $a(CKB)5400000000040713 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/68702 035 $a(oapen)doab68702 035 $a(EXLCZ)995400000000040713 100 $a20202105d2020 |y 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aSystemic Risk and Reinsurance 210 $aBasel, Switzerland$cMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute$d2020 215 $a1 online resource (146 p.) 311 08$a3-03936-298-4 311 08$a3-03936-299-2 330 $aThis Special Issue covers the topic of timely vital risk management - systemic risk - from many important perspectives. It includes novel and scientific approaches from the network with topological indicators on systemic risk, community analysis of the global financial system, welfare analysis of capital insurance and the impact of capital requirement, risk measures, and optimal portfolio and optimal reinsurance under risk constraint. Most articles study the financial sector and insurance companies after the financial crisis of 2008-2009 circa ten years prior. The COVID-19 global pandemic in 2020 has caused similar or even greater challenges for the entire economy. Therefore, this Special Issue will be useful for anyone interested in systemic risk management. 606 $aCollecting coins, banknotes, medals and other related items$2bicssc 610 $acapital insurance 610 $acapital requirement for premium risk 610 $acollective risk model 610 $acommunity structure 610 $acomplex networks 610 $aconditional value-at-risk 610 $acontagion 610 $adeltaCoVaR 610 $aequilibrium 610 $afinancial conglomerate 610 $afinancial markets 610 $ageneral risk measure 610 $ainsurance sector 610 $ainterconnectedness 610 $amean-CVaR portfolio optimization 610 $aminimum spanning trees-topological indicators 610 $aNeyman-Pearson problem 610 $aoptimal reinsurance 610 $areinsurance strategies 610 $arisk minimization 610 $arisk sharing 610 $aSolvency II 610 $asystemic risk 610 $atail dependence 610 $awelfare 615 7$aCollecting coins, banknotes, medals and other related items 700 $aTian$b Weidong$4edt$01293416 702 $aTian$b Weidong$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557134003321 996 $aSystemic Risk and Reinsurance$93022599 997 $aUNINA
