We present in this paper a selection of science highlights of the Fermi mission, with particular emphasis on results that are relevant for cosmic-ray physics. We cover observations of supernova remnants and studies of interstellar gamma-ray emission, reaching from the vicinity of the solar system out to the more distant starburst galaxies.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-06-14T08:38:24.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "fermi large area telescope", "gamma ray sources", "fermi gamma-ray space telescope satellite", "large area telescope aboard" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1393/ncc/i2011-10697-0" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 858082, "adsabs": "2010arXiv1006.2635K" } } }
