Brief Description
BodyText2
Particle physics is concerned with the elementary particles and their interactions as well as the underlying structure of the Universe. Research topics include unified theories, cosmology, dark matter and dark energy. Particle astrophysics concerns elementary particles of astrophysical origin, and involves the study of cosmic rays, astrophysical neutrinos and gamma-rays. Delaware research groups play leading roles in the IceCube Neutrino Observatory in Antarctica, the VERITAS and CTA gamma-ray observatories, the PUEO NASA balloon mission, and the KamLAND experiment. We are also involved with the Pierre Auger Observatory.
