Energy spectra of cosmic-rays in GeV-TeV region have been directly measured by balloons and in space. Particularly cosmic-ray antiparticles can provide unique opportunity to study fundamental physics such as indirect searches for Dark Matter and understanding of its nature. More than four years after AMS (Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer) start taking data on the ISS (International Space Station),...

In recent years, direct cosmic-ray detectors reached an unprecedented level of precision, allowing to measure new spectral features deviating from longstanding expectations and extrapolations. In this talk, I will review some main theories trying to explain the latest observations of charged cosmic rays. These ideas range from acceleration and propagation effects to additional contributions...

The Crab pulsar is one of the youngest pulsars in our galaxy. It exhibits the highest spin-down luminosity among the galactic neutron stars and has been observed from radio to VHE. Fermi/LAT reported a detailed phase-resolved spectrum in 0.1-10 GeV, while VERITAS and MAGIC detected pulsed photons in the double peak and the bridge phases in 25GeV-2TeV. In this talk, I will solve the particle...

Oral presentation
The three major ground-based gamma-ray experiments, H.E.S.S., MAGIC
and VERITAS have carried out an extensive program of very high energy
(VHE) observations of the Universe and revolutionized our view of the
VHE gamma-ray sky. Studies at TeV energies are valuable for exploring
the underlying energetic particle populations in Galactic systems.
Galactic gamma-ray sources include shell-type...

The very high energy gamma-ray astrophysics with Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes is blooming thanks to the excellent performance of the experiments H.E.S.S., MAGIC and VERITAS. Large fraction of the scientific program of these experiments is devoted to observation of active galactic nuclei (such as blazars and radio galaxies) and follow-ups of gamma-ray burst alerts. In this talk I...
