The Cygnus arm of the galaxy contains a large number of
energetic astrophysical sources, including numerous
supernova remnants (SNRs), pulsar wind nebulae (PWN) and
X-ray binary systems. Indeed, in terms of potential
galactic sources needed to explain the origin of the
high energy cosmic rays, Cygnus is the promising region
accessible to northern hemisphere observatories using
the air s

The H.E.S.S. telescope has detected a new very high energy gamma-ray point-like
source, HESS J0632+058. It is the first point-like source detected by H.E.S.S.
without any obvious counterpart. The excess lies in a region where interaction
between the Monoceros supernova remnant and the Rosette Nebula may occur. The energy
spectrum of the observed gamma-rays is well described by a power law of i

The TeV source J2032+4130 is the first unidentified detection in very high
energy astrophysics and remains so. There have been contradictory claims
regarding its extension, flux level and variability in gamma-rays, although
the longest and most sensitive observation up to now favor a steady, extended
source. MAGIC has devoted more than 80 hours on J2032+4130 observations during
2005 and 2006.

The South Pole Air Shower Experiment (SPASE-2) began operation in 1996 and took data
until it was decommissioned in December, 2006. We are currently analyzing some 200
million reconstructed events taken between 1997 and the end of 2006. In this paper we
report on a search for 100 TeV gamma-rays from three specific Southern hemisphere
point sources discovered by H.E.S.S. to have gamma-ray spect

Many of the unidentified Egret sources are believed to be young pulsars.
Such young not-identified pulsars should be surrounded by pulsar wind
nebulae which are at present well established TeV gamma-ray sources
(like Vela X, MSH 15-52 and G0.9+0.1). Moreover, other type of
gamma-ray sources are likely, i.e. binary systems, molecular clouds,
supernovae
remnants, massive stars. The Milagro exp

The Tibet air shower array experiment has been conducted at Yangbajing
(90.522°E, 30.102°N; 4300m above sea level) in Tibet, China, Since 1990. A
search for extended emission from Cygnus region was carried out using data
taken from the Tibet III (1999 November -2005 November) arrays. Spreading
across -3° to ~3° in Galactic latitude and 65°to ~85°in Galactic
longitude, an excess tha

The gamma-quantum spectra produced by the electronic and hadronic components of
cosmic rays have similar shapes at the energies from 1GeV to 1 TeV due to the
synchrotron losses of the electrons. So, the only observational possibility to
discriminate between leptonic and hadronic contributions is to measure the
gamma-quantum spectrum at energies higher than 1 TeV, where these two spectra are
