A new generation of space experiments is needed to enhance our understanding of cosmic rays. The challenge of the direct detection at ever higher energies with improved energy and angular resolutions is guiding us in designing the detectors of the future. The High Energy cosmic-Radiation Detection facility (HERD) onboard the China Space Station will be the next calorimetric experiment....
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are short lasting flares of keV-MeV radiation. These extragalactic transients are produced in the ultra-relativistic jets produced after collapse of massive stars or merger of neutron stars. In the last decade we have witnessed extraordinary observations of GRBs, including joint GRB-gravitational wave (GW) detection and very-high energy (VHE) gamma-ray observations....
In this review talk, we will peer into the Universe through the eyes of NASA's Fermi Large Area Telescope (Fermi-LAT) to marvel at the main results that has been recently achieved in the GeV energy range. Particular attention will be given to the latest results in the search of dark matter.
