The gamma-ray binary 1FGL J1018.6-5856 consists of an O6V((f)) type star and an unknown compact object, and shows orbitally modulated emission from radio to very high energy gamma rays. The X-ray light curve shows a maximum around the same…
Star forming galaxies emit GeV- and TeV-gamma rays that are thought to originate from hadronic interactions of cosmic-ray (CR) nuclei with the interstellar medium. To understand the emission, we have used the moving mesh code Arepo to…
A long standing problem in high energy astrophysics is the nature of galactic accelerators of particles with energies above PeV. Such objects are sources of galactic cosmic rays and can produce PeV-regime photons observed by ground-based…
A few radio galaxies have been discovered to emit GeV-TeV gamma-ray emission in spite of relatively large viewing angles of their jets. We consider a scenario in which such large angle gamma-ray emission is preferentially produced by…

The High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) has revealed many TeV (10 12 eV) gamma-ray sources along the Galactic Plane and around 30 percent of these sources remain unidentified. The morphology and dynamics of dense gas coincident and…

The Galactic gamma-ray diffuse emission (GDE) is emitted by cosmic rays (CRs), ultra-relativistic protons and electrons, interacting with gas and electromagnetic radiation fields in the interstellar medium. Here we present the analysis of…
When a black hole accretes plasmas at very low accretion rate, an advection-dominated accretion flow (ADAF) is formed. In an ADAF, relativistic electrons emit soft gamma-rays via Bremsstrahlung. Some MeV photons collide with each other to…
The gamma-ray binary system PSR B1259-63 has recently passed through periastron and has been of particular interest as it was observed by Fermi near the December 2010 periastron passage. The system has been detected at very high energies…
TeV gravity models provide a scenario for black hole formation at energies much smaller than G_N^(-1/2) \sim 10^19 GeV. In particular, the collision of a ultrahigh energy cosmic ray with a dark matter particle in our galactic halo or with…
By proposing a pure leptonic radiation model, we study the potential gamma-ray emissions from jets of the low-mass X-ray binaries. In this model, the relativistic electrons that are accelerated in the jets are responsible for radiative…
We have recently studied LS 5039, a gamma-ray binary, with Giant Meterwave Radio Telescope (GMRT) during its periastron and apastron passage. The results presented here show that the spectra are inverted at the low frequency and the flux…
Recent observations have shown that pulsars are surrounded by extended regions which emit TeV-scale gamma rays through the inverse Compton scattering of very high energy electrons and positrons. Such TeV halos are responsible for a large…
It is proposed that the variable TeV emission observed in M87 may be produced in a starved magnetospheric region, above which the outflow associated with the VLBA jet is established. It is shown that annihilation of MeV photons emitted by…
The population of binary systems known to emit in the GeV and TeV bands consists of only a few firmly identified Galactic sources. These rare objects constitute extreme particle accelerators operating under varying, but regularly repeating,…
Microquasars are X-ray binaries with relativistic jets. These jets are powerful energy carriers, thought to be fed by accretion, which produce non-thermal emission at different energy bands. To date, several Galactic sources showing…
Gamma-ray binaries allow us to study physical processes such as particle acceleration up to TeV energies and VHE gamma-ray emission and absorption with changing geometrical configurations on a periodic basis. These sources produce outflows…
The most peculiar radio characteristics of the TeV emitting high-mass X-ray binary LS I +61{\deg}303 are two periodicities: A large periodic outburst which exhibits the same period as the orbit (phase \Phi) and a second periodicity of 1667…
Very high energy gamma-ray emission of Fanaroff-Riley I objects is not univocally explained by a single emission model. Leptonic models with one and multi-zone emission regions, occurring in the jet of these objects, are usually used to…
