Scientific paper

The upcoming launch of GLAST will bring unprecedented sensitivity and coverage to the high-energy gamma-ray domain ( 0.1-10 GeV). Studies of compact binaries, composed of a normal star and a compact object, will greatly benefit from these new observations. Gamma-ray emission will shed new light on the non-thermal processes that are known to occur in these sources and how they are powered (accretion, pulsar spindown etc). In light of the history of gamma-ray emission from binaries, I will discuss the foreseen detections and their impact on our knowledge of pulsar winds and the link between accretion and ejection.
