Description
Several compact binary systems appeared to have spectral energy
distributions that peak is gamma-ray energy band. Almost all these
sources have been detected in the high energy and very high energy
regimes with Fermi/LAT and ground based Cherenkov detectors,
respectively. Detection of very high energy photons from these compact
sources implies operation of a very efficient particle accelerator in
there. Moreover, comparison of the spectra and lightcurves collected
with these instruments suggests that there should be present several
distinct production sites for gamma-ray emission. Proper implications
of these striking facts on particle acceleration theories demands
accurate modelling of the physical processes taking place in gamma-ray
binary systems. This includes hydrodynamic simulations, calculations
of the production and transport of non-thermal emission. In this talk
I will present these simulations for two binary systems: LS 5039 and
1FGL J1018.65856.
