This fourth edition of the VGGRS workshop (see Heidelberg 2010, Barcelona 2013, Heidelberg 2015) will be focused on the study of gamma-ray binaries as well as on the physics behind the Crab Nebula gamma-ray flares. We intend to gather people actively working in these fields and discuss the present and future challenges that new observations, numerical simulations, and theoretical modelling are posing. The workshop will last for four days, from July 4th to July 7th 2017, with extended discussion sessions at the end of each day.
The format will be similar to the previous meetings: modest size, quite informal, and very much discussion oriented. As in past editions, there will be no proceedings.
