Scientific paper

Recent observational and theoretical investigations of gamma-ray emission (GRE) from astronomical objects are reviewed. Topics addressed include the basic observational parameters, bremsstrahlung GRE, the Compton effect, synchrotron and curvature radiation, pi0-meson and analogous decays, gamma line generation, gamma-ray absorption, and the Galactic GRE band. Consideration is given to discrete sources of soft GRE, gamma-ray bursts, the annihilation GRE line from the Galactic center, the Al-26 decay line, GRE lines from SN, diffuse GRE from the Galactic disk and halo, discrete GRE sources at 30-5000 MeV, and sources of GRE at energies greater than 1 TeV or 1 PeV. Diagrams, maps, graphs, and tables of numerical data are provided.
