Abstract

I report on the prospects for focusing telescopes in the soft gamma-ray band (>70/100 keV). These telescopes could open a new window in soft gamma-ray astronomy. Indeed the current instrumentation is background limited and many open issues could be settled with deep observations in this energy band. I also discuss some of these issues and the scientific prospects of Laue lenses for space astrophysics.
