TeV/PeV gamma-ray emission from binary systems

Recent advancements in the Cherenkov technique and the development of ultra-high-energy gamma-ray detectors have revolutionized our understanding of the non-thermal Universe. These ground-based gamma-ray instruments have revealed TeV emission from diverse astrophysical objects, even reaching the PeV domain. Among these discoveries, binary systems of different nature have been found to be extreme particle accelerators. This presentation will focus on the key role of ground-based gamma-ray astronomy in unveiling these gamma-loud systems. I will review the current state-of-the-art of TeV binary research, highlighting the latest breakthroughs such as the discovery of TeV emission from novae, produced by accelerated protons or the existence of persistent TeV emission in microquasars.
