Abstract
Thanks to the Swift and Fermi satellites and numerous ground-based followed-up telescopes, gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are now quickly covered in virtually every wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum. One of the main scientific objectives of the Fermi’s two instruments: Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) and Large Area Telescope (LAT) are the study of GRBs. Covering the energy range above 30 MeV, the LAT has seen more than a hundred GRBs and have seen tens of photons above 10 GeV from several bright GRBs, limited by its collective area. In this talk, I will summarize recent GRB observations at >10 GeV and discuss the corresponding radiation mechanisms
