"I have taught from and enjoyed the first edition of the book. The selection of topics is the best I've seen. Maurizio Spurio gives very clear presentations using a generous amount of observational data. " James Matthews (Louisiana State University) This is the second edition of an introduction to “multi-messenger” astrophysics. It covers the many different aspects connecting particle physics with astrophysics and cosmology and introduces high-energy astrophysics using different probes: the electromagnetic radiation, with techniques developed by traditional astronomy; charged cosmic rays, gamma-rays and neutrinos, with methods developed in high-energy laboratories; and gravitational waves, recently observed using laser interferometers. The book offers a comprehensive and systematic approach to the theoretical background and the experimental aspects of the study of the high-energy universe. The breakthrough discovery of gravitational waves motivated this new edition of the book, to offer a more global and multimessenger vision of high-energy astrophysics. This second edition is updated and enriched with substantial new materials also deriving from the results obtained at the LIGO/Virgo observatories. For the first time it is now possible to draw the connection between gravitational waves, traditional astronomical observations and other probes (in particular, gamma-rays and neutrinos). The book draws on the extensive courses of Professor Maurizio Spurio at the University of Bologna and it is aimed at graduate students and post-graduate researchers with a basic understanding of particle and nuclear physics. It will also be of interest to particle physicists working in accelerator/collider physics who are keen to understand the mechanisms of the largest accelerators in the Universe.

Since the 1980s the cross-disciplinary, multidimensional field of links between cosmology and particle physics has been widely recognised by theorists, studying cosmology, particle and nuclear physics, gravity, as well as by astrophysicists, astronomers, space physicists, experimental particle and nuclear physicists, mathematicians and engineers.The relationship between cosmology and particle physics is now one of the important topics of discussion at any scientific meeting both on astrophysics and high energy physics.Cosmoparticle physics is the result of the mutual relationship between cosmology and particle physics in their search for physical mechanisms of inflation, baryosynthesis, nonbaryonic dark matter, and for fundamental unity of the natural forces underlying them. The set of nontrivial links between cosmological consequences of particle models and the astrophysical data on matter and radiation in the modern universe maintains cosmoarcheology, testing self-consistently particular predictions of particle models on the base of cosmological scenarios, following from them. Complex analysis of all the indirect cosmological, astrophysical and microphysical phenomena makes cosmoparticle physics the science of the world and renders quantitatively definite the correspondence between its micro- and macroscopic structure.This book outlines the principal ideas of the modern particle theory and cosmology, their mutual relationship and the nontrivial correspondence of their physical and astrophysical effects.

The Astro 2020 Decadal report (Pathways to Discovery in Astronomy and Astrophysics for the 2020s) identified the need for a new class of mission for the next decade that fills the gap between a Mid-sized Explorer (MIDEX) and Flagship (Large) mission. The report specifically recommends that a cadence of one probe mission per decade with a cost cap of $1.5 billion balances scientific scope with timeliness. NASA has followed this recommendation and opened a call for Astrophysics Probe Explorer (APEX) proposals, restricted to either a far-infrared or an X-ray mission, due in Fall 2023 with a planned launch date in no later than 2032. In response to this call, the High-Energy X-ray Probe (HEX-P) concept has been developed as a partnership between NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), and the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), with international partnership from the Italian Space Agency (ASI; Italy), the German Space Agency (DLR), and the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics (MPE; Germany). HEX-P is a mission concept that offers sensitive broad-band coverage from soft to hard X-rays (0.2 − 80 keV), with an exceptional combination of spectral, timing, and angular capabilities. It features two high-energy telescopes (HETs) that focus hard X-rays, and one low-energy telescope (LET) that focuses lower energy X-rays, building upon the heritage of previous successful missions such as XMM-Newton and NuSTAR. With this leap in observational capability, HEX-P will be capable of addressing fundamental questions about the extreme environments around black holes and neutron stars, map the growth of supermassive black holes, and quantify the effect they have on their environments. HEX-P will resolve the hard X-ray emission from dense regions of our Galaxy to understand the high-energy source populations and investigate dark matter candidate particles through their decay channel signatures. In this Frontiers Research Topic we present a collection of papers which delve into some of the most exciting scientific questions that can be addressed with a mission like HEX-P. The papers have been prepared by members of the HEX-P collaboration, which is organized into four main scientific pillars: • Black Hole Growth • Accretion Power • Stellar Evolution • Time-Domain and Multi-Messenger Astronomy The individual papers cover a range of topics, including: • The cosmic X-ray background • Seyfert galaxies, Compton-thick active galaxies, and blazars • Black hole binaries, neutron stars, magnetars, ultraluminous X-ray sources, and tidal disruption events • The physics of the X-ray corona • X-ray populations in nearby galaxies • Supernova remnants, pulsar wind nebulae, and nuclear astrophysics • Galactic PeVatrons, star clusters, superbubbles, microquasar jets, and gamma-ray binaries • The Galactic Center • Supermassive black spin measurements and dual active galaxies • Pulsar Timing, electromagnetic counterparts of gravitational wave sources and transient phenomena The main goal of this Research Topic is to present detailed modeling and simulations for a range of HEX-P science cases in order to demonstrate the capabilities of HEX-P in serving the astrophysics community in the next decade. The members of the HEX-P mission are welcome to present Original Research papers, as well as any other kind of article types that fit their manuscript. Please, have a look at here to choose the appropriate article type to submit to this collection. This Research Topic is organized by the researchers of the HEX-P mission. Authors and Guest Editors belong to the same consortium. Furthermore, Dr. Daniel Stern and Dr. Javier Garcia are the Principal Investigator and the Project Scientist of the mission respectively. All manuscripts will be peer-reviewed by researchers external to the collaboration.

As the most powerful explosion that occurs in the universe, gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are one of the most exciting topics being studied in astrophysics. Creating more energy than the Sun does in its entire lifetime, GRBs create a blaze of light that will outshine every other object visible in the sky, enabling us to measure galaxies that are several million years old.GRBs cover various areas of astronomy and interest in them reaches a wide range of fields. Andrew Levan explores the fascinating history of these astronomical occurrences and details our current understanding of GRBs. The science behind them is rapidly moving and this book examines the knowledge that we now have as well as the questions that are continually being raised. Predominantly aimed at PhD students and researchers in the area, Gamma-Ray Bursts addresses this captivating topic and outlines the principles and initial applications of a fascinating astronomical phenomena.

The universe is pervaded by particles with extreme energies, millions of times greater than we can produce on Earth. They have been a mystery for over a century. Now, current and future experiments in particle astrophysics are leading us to answers to the most fundamental questions about them. How does nature accelerate the highest energy particles in the universe? Do new interactions between them occur at such extreme energies? Are there unknown aspects of spacetime that can be uncovered by studying these particles?This book brings together three fields within 'extreme astronomy': ultra-high-energy cosmic ray physics, neutrino astronomy, and gamma-ray astronomy, and discusses how each can help answer these questions. Each field is presented with a theoretical introduction that clearly elucidates the key questions scientists face. This is followed by chapters that discuss the current set of experiments — how they work and their discoveries. Finally, new techniques and approaches are discussed to solve the mysteries uncovered by the current experiments.

Written by a professional astronomer who has worked on a wide spectrum of topics throughout his career, this book gives a popular science level description of what has become known as multimessenger astronomy. It links the new with the traditional, showing how astronomy has advanced at increasing pace in the modern era. In the second decade of the twenty-first century astronomy has seen the beginnings of a revolution. After centuries when all our information about the Universe has come via electromagnetic waves, now several entirely new ways of exploring it have emerged. The most spectacular has been the detection of gravitational waves in 2015, but astronomy also uses neutrinos and cosmic ray particles to probe processes in the centres of stars and galaxies. The book is strongly oriented towards measurement and technique. Widely illustrated with colourful pictures of instruments, their creators and astronomical objects, it is backed with descriptions of the underlying theories and concepts, linking predictions, observations and experiments. The thread is largely historical, although obviously it cannot be encyclopaedic. Its point of departure is the beginning of the twentieth century and it aims at being as complete as possible for the date of completion at the end of 2020. The book addresses a wide public whose interest in science is served by magazines like Scientific American: lively, intelligent readers but without university studies in physics.
