The International Heidelberg Workshop on TeV Gamma-Ray
Astrophysics' brought together astrophysicists from the various
fields which play a role in the formation of high energy gamma-ray
emission. In particular, theoretical and observational aspects of
the physics and astrophysics of pulsars and quasars, the
acceleration of particles at Supernova Remnants and other strong
astrophysical shock fronts, and cascade processes in universal
background photon fields were comprehensively discussed in more
than thirty reviews by leading experts. In their entirety these
reviews describe the birth of a new field of astronomy. This field
concerns cosmic gamma-rays of very high energy which are observed
with ground-based optical telescopes due to the Cherenkov emission
of the secondary particles created by the interaction of these
gamma-rays with atoms in the Earth's atmosphere. Beyond that, the
workshop encompassed the latest developments and trends in theory
and observation of cosmic gamma-ray sources of all energies, from
nuclear gamma-ray lines in the MeV-region, through the
Bremsstrahlung, Inverse Compton, and pion decay continuum emission,
to gamma-rays due the decay of exotic relics from the early
Universe. Audience: Specialists as well as students in physics and
astrophysics and young research workers.
