Abstract

I give a synopsis of two aspects of the Galactic Cosmic Ray (GCR) acceleration problem: the importance of the medium energy gamma-ray window, and several specific astrophysical sources which merit further investigation.

Keywords

Galactic Cosmic Ray acceleration gamma-ray astrophysical sources medium energy
