Scientific paper

The findings of two working-group sessions held on the topic of astrophysical studies in Antarctica are presented. The sessions respectively gave attention to energies in the region of 1 TeV, where air Cherenkov telescopes must be used, and in that of 100 TeV, where arrays of detectors sensitive to extensive air showers are preferable. If the latter technique's coverage can be moved down to 20 TeV, overlap will be obtainable with the two-week exposures of the EGRET instrument on the 1990s-operating Gamma Ray Observatory.
