Latest Results from the Fermi Gamma-Ray Telescope
Abstract
Can we learn about New Physics with astronomical and astro-particle data? Since its launch in 2008, the Large Area Telescope, onboard of the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, has detected the largest amount of gamma rays in the 20 MeV - 300 GeV energy range and electrons + positrons in the 7 GeV- 1 TeV range, opening a new observational window on a wide variety of astrophysical objects.
