Description
I will review the most prominent types of extragalctic gamma-ray sources,
such as gamma-ray bursts, AGNs and other galaxies, including some specific
individual sources, and the effects expected from intergalactic shocks.
I will then discuss some of the physical models used to describe these
objects, and the possible connections between the gamma-ray emission and
cosmic ray as well as neutrino fluxes, together with the related diffuse
radiations backgrounds.
