Gamma-rays from cascades in close massive binaries containing energetic   pulsars
  Some massive binaries should contain energetic pulsars which inject relativistic leptons from their inner magnetospheres and/or pulsar wind regions. If the binary system is compact enough, then these leptons can initiate inverse Compton (IC) $e^\pm$ pair cascades in the anisotropic radiation field of a massive star. $\gamma$-rays can be produced in the IC cascade during its development in a pulsar wind region and above a shock in a massive star wind region where the propagation of leptons is determined by the structure of a magnetic field around the massive star. For a binary system with specific parametres, we calculate phase dependent spectra and fluxes of $\gamma$-rays escaping as a function of the inclination angle of the system and for different assumptions on injection conditions of the primary leptons (their initial spectra and location of the shock inside the binary). We conclude that the features of $\gamma$-ray emission from such massive binaries containing energetic pulsars should allow to obtain important information on the acceleration of particles by the pulsars, and on interactions of a compact object with the massive star wind. Predicted $\gamma$-ray light curves and spectra in the GeV and TeV energy ranges from such binary systems within our Galaxy and Magellanic Clouds should be observed by future AGILE and GLAST satellites and low threshold Cherenkov telescopes such as MAGIC, HESS, VERITAS or CANGAROO III.
