Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Astroparticle Physics investigates the origins and properties of high-energy cosmic rays and particles. Research includes the measurement of cosmic muon flux underground, the radio detection of extensive air showers, and the analysis of gamma-ray sources using atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes. Studies also focus on the cosmic-ray electron+positron flux and the Galactic neutrino flux, exploring astrophysical accelerators and potential dark matter signals.
