The Fermi-LAT view of the Extragalactic Sky

Abstract

The Large Area Telescope (LAT) on board Fermi, the most sensitive ever launched gamma-ray telescope, has been gathering high-quality data for over 7 years. Beside detecting 3000 point-like sources it has shed light on the origin of the extragalactic gamma-ray background, the extragalactic background light and the strength of the intergalactic magnetic field. In this talk I will review all these aspects with a focus on the regimes that the LAT can explore in the near future. See you on thursday in the seminars' room, floor -1, via Ranzani 1, on time at 14h.
