The number of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) detected at high energies ($sim,0.1-100$ GeV) has seen a rapid increase over the last decade, thanks to observations from the Fermi-Large Area Telescope. The improved statistics and quality of data resulted in a better characterisation of the high-energy emission properties and in stronger constraints on theoretical models. In spite of the many achievements and progresses, several observational properties still represent a challenge for theoretical models, revealing how our understanding is far from being complete. This paper reviews the main spectral and temporal properties of $sim,0.1-100$ GeV emission from GRBs and summarises the most promising theoretical models proposed to interpret the observations. Since a boost for the understanding of GeV radiation might come from observations at even higher energies, the present status and future prospects for observations at very-high energies (above $sim$ 100 GeV) are also discussed. The improved sensitivity of upcoming facilities, coupled to theoretical predictions, supports the concrete possibility for future ground GRB detections in the high/very-high energy domain.
We examine 288 GRBs detected by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescopes Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) that fell within the field-of-view of Fermis Large Area Telescope (LAT) during the first 2.5 years of observations, which showed no evidence for emissi
The synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) emission from Gamma-ray Burst (GRB) forward shock can extend to the very-high-energy (VHE; $E_gamma > $100 GeV) range. Such high energy photons are rare and are attenuated by the cosmic infrared background before re
The synchrotron external shock model predicts the evolution of the spectral ($beta$) and temporal ($alpha$) indices during the gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglow for different environmental density profiles, electron spectral indices, electron cooling r
The Milagro gamma-ray observatory employs a water Cherenkov detector to observe extensive air showers produced by high energy particles interacting in the Earths atmosphere. Milagro has a wide field of view and high duty cycle, monitoring the norther
The prompt emission of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is widely thought to be radiation from accelerated electrons, but an appreciably larger amount of energy could be carried by accelerated protons, particularly if GRBs are the sources of ultra-high-energy
