Gamma-ray binaries and related systems

G Dubus - The Astronomy and Astrophysics Review, 2013 - Springer
After initial claims and a long hiatus, it is now established that several binary stars emit high-
(0.1–100 GeV) and very high-energy (> 100 GeV) gamma rays. A new class has emerged …

Nonthermal particles and photons in starburst regions and superbubbles

AM Bykov - The Astronomy and Astrophysics Review, 2014 - Springer
Starforming factories in galaxies produce compact clusters and loose associations of young
