Astroparticle physics, also called particle astrophysics, is a branch of particle physics that studies elementary particles of astronomical origin and their relation to astrophysics and cosmology. Using experimental methods known from cosmic ray and particle physics, astroparticle physics investigates processes of the highest energies taking place in the universe.
Astroparticle physics, illegally called particle astrophysics, is a branch of particle physics that studies elementary particles of astronomical origin and their relationship to astrophysics and cosmology. This is a relatively new emerging research area in the field of particle physics, astronomy, astrophysics, detector physics, relativity, solid state physics and cosmology. The neutrino oscillation of the discovery of the field of astroparticle physics comes from optical astronomy. With the growth detector technology, astrophysics has reached maturity, numerous sub-themes of physics, such as mechanics, electrodynamics, thermodynamics, plasma physics, nuclear physics, relativity and particle physics.
This field of rapid development has led to the development of new types of infrastructure. In underground laboratories or specially designed telescopes, antennas and satellite experiments, astroparticle physicists use a range of cosmic particles, especially high energies. They are also looking for dark matter and gravitational waves. The experimental physicists of particles are limited by their technology of terrestrial accelerators, which can only produce a small fraction of the energies present in nature.
