摘要:Emission from binaries above several MeV has long being terra incognita. Gamma-ray lore
speaks of near-encounters with stars behaving mysteriously in faraway energy bands. Very high
energy emission from several binaries is now been well established and as surprising as those
early tales. I will review the current observational status, focusing on the very high energies. I
will then discuss how such emission might arise in these systems, the associated difficulties, and
what can be learned from such observations.
