High-energy astroparticle physics with multi-messenger observations
High-energy astroparticle physics with multi-messenger observations I am an experimental astroparticle physicist studying high-energy particles in our Galaxy and beyond. I study how these particles are accelerated in extreme environments, such as supernova remnants and supermassive black holes, and how they propagate throughout the Universe. My research interests focus on investigating the origins of these particles by combining the data from direct cosmic-ray observations with indirect gamma-ray and neutrino observations. As part of multiple international collaborations, including the IceCube Neutrino Observatory located at the South Pole, the VERITAS gamma-ray observatory in Arizona, and the HELIX balloon experiment scheduled to launch in 2022, I am analyzing currently available data while actively developing detectors for future experiments.
