Astroparticle physics is a branch of physics that combines the fields of astrophysics and particle physics to study high-energy particles originating from space. This field explores the interactions of cosmic rays, neutrinos, and gamma rays with astronomical objects and phenomena, such as black holes, supernovae, and dark matter. Astroparticle physicists use a variety of experimental techniques, including ground-based detectors, space telescopes, and underground laboratories, to study these particles and their impact on the universe. This research area aims to deepen our understanding of the fundamental forces and particles in the universe and address questions about the nature of dark matter, the origin of cosmic rays, and the dynamics of extreme astrophysical events.
