    Dual phase noble liquid Time Projection Chambers (TPCs) offer a competitive and scalable way to search for dark matter directly via elastically scattering off of detector target nuclei and electrons. The Global Argon Dark Matter Collaboration (GADMC) is undertaking an ambitious global program from the extraction and purification of Underground Argon (UAr), depleted in 39Ar which reduces the...

    Dark matter
    Oral

    For almost 20 years, the DAMA experiment has observed annual modulations
    in the signal from heavily-shielded, ultra-pure NaI scintillator
    crystals housed in the Gran Sasso underground laboratory. This
    modulation is consistent with expectations for the motion of the earth
    through a galactic dark matter halo, but is in conflict with results
    from other dark matter direct detection...

    Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) which are exotic millisecond duration radio bursts, are currently the hot topic in the field of transient astronomy. The discovery of FRBs has stimulated a range of theoretical investigations to understand their origin and physics as well as observational efforts around the world to search for more such bursts. In the recent decade or so, we have learned a lot about...

    Oral

    The center of the Milky Way galaxy provides a promising target to search for signatures of dark matter self-annihilation or decay into Standard Model particles. However, competing high-energy astrophysical processes are complex and must be modeled with care. I will review on-going studies of the so-called "Galactic Center Excess" discovered in Fermi-LAT data. I will discuss recent developments...

    The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) was installed aboard the International Space Station on May 19, 2011. In eight years AMS has collected over 145 billion cosmic rays. AMS conducts searches for the origin of antimatter, dark matter, and new phenomena through the precision measurement of cosmic rays. The latest AMS results on cosmic ray positrons, electrons, antiprotons, protons, nuclei, and...

    Gamma rays
    Oral

    Very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray astroparticle physics is a relatively young field, and
    observations over the past decade have surprisingly revealed almost two hundred VHE
    emitters which appear to act as cosmic particle accelerators. These sources are an
    important component of the Universe, influencing the evolution of stars and galaxies. At the
    same time, they also act as a probe of...

    Gamma rays
    Oral

    Astrophysical gamma-ray sources are sites of extreme particle acceleration. For gamma-ray sources in our galaxy, a key ingredient in understanding the nature of the underlying particles (leptons and/or hadrons) is knowledge of the interstellar gas (neutral and ionised), often traced by high frequency radio telescopes. For example, this gas can act as a target for cosmic ray collisions. In this...

    Neutrinos
    Oral

    The age of high energy neutrino astronomy has arrived, and the Universe has begun to reveal its secrets. IceCube has detected and characterised the astrophysical neutrino flux, and revealed evidence of the first source – the blazar TXS 0506+056 – which appears to be a cosmic particle accelerator. Upgraded and new detectors (IceCube Upgrade, KM3NET, IceCube-Gen2) are in various stages of...

    Cosmic rays
    Oral

    Cosmic ray data collected by experiments like Pamela, AMS-02, CALET, and
    DAMPE show many spectral features that are not described by simple power
    laws. These features may be giving information on the time-dependent
    activity of individual cosmic ray sources, but the interpretation is
    unclear. Because the same cosmic rays are interacting also in the
    interstellar medium, these data are also...
