Abstract:
In international workshops on "New Worlds in Astroparticle Physics" held biannually, astronomers, astrophysicists and particle physicists discuss recent developments in the exciting and rapidly developing field of Astroparticle Physics. Similar to previous workshops, this 5th international workshop introduced experimental, observational and theoretical subjects through review lectures. This was followed by shorter contributions on the recent developments in Astroparticle Physics. This workshop covered an array of subjects like cosmic rays, gravitational waves, space radiation, neutrino physics, cosmological parameters, black holes, dark matter and dark energy. Sample Chapter(s). Chapter 1: An Overview of the Status of Work on Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (1,030 KB). Contents: Overviews in Astroparticle Physics; Cosmic Ray Physics; Gravitational Waves and Compact Sources; Space Radiation: Effects and Monitoring; Neutrino Physics; Cosmological Parameters Measurements; Black Hole Physics; Dark Matter and Dark Energy. Readership: Academics and graduates in astrophysics, high energy physics and accelerator physics.
