RESEARCH FIELD
Astroparticle physics bridges particle physics, astrophysics, and cosmology, studying the highest-energy phenomena in the universe. Researchers detect cosmic rays from distant galaxies, neutrinos from stellar explosions, and search for dark matter candidates using underground detectors shielded from background radiation. The IceCube Neutrino Observatory at the South Pole has opened a new observational window on the cosmos, while next-generation experiments like the Cherenkov Telescope Array will map gamma-ray sources at unprecedented sensitivity. This field informs fundamental questions about the origin of matter and the nature of dark energy.
