Abstract
This unique database allows the study of thousands of gamma-ray sources of very different nature, from our own Galaxy to distant and active galactic nuclei, as well as addressing fundamental questions of particle astrophysics like the nature of dark matter and the origin of energetic gamma-ray bursts. In addition, cosmic-ray electrons provide a unique probe of the origin and propagation mechanisms of cosmic rays in local galactic environment.
