The Astroparticle Physics Laboratory
The Astroparticle Physics Laboratory
conducts research at the interface between cosmology and high-energy particle physics to investigate the birth and evolution of the Universe in terms of unified
theories of fundamental interactions. This includes a broad range of space based scientific investigations to study the origin, nature, and effect of cosmic rays,
and the electromagnetic radiation that carries the signatures of nuclear, thermal, dark matter, and acceleration processes through out the Universe. Support the
Solar System Exploration Division by providing Gamma ray detectors to characterize the surface composition of solar bodies. Support the Sun-Earth Exploration
Division by providing Cosmic ray detectors to determine the energy and composition of the solar wind.
