NASA Physics of the Cosmos
- Francesca Civano
The Physics of the Cosmos (PhysCOS) Program is one of three focused programs contained within NASA's Astrophysics Division (APD). PhysCOS lies at the intersection of physics and astronomy and has the goal of exploring some of the most fundamental questions regarding the physical forces and laws of the universe. The PhysCOS Program Analysis Group (PhysPAG) serves as a community-based,...
Space-based gamma-ray astronomy is a crucial tool for investigating extreme astrophysical phenomena and has played a key role in advancing our understanding of high-energy processes in the Universe. Gamma rays are deeply connected to gravitational waves, neutrinos, and cosmic rays, making them essential for multi-messenger astrophysics. As several current missions approach the end of their...
NASA’s Physics of the Cosmos Cosmic Ray and Neutrino Science Interest Group (CRNSIG) provides a forum for researchers across the broad energy spectrum of cosmic ray and neutrino observations to both discuss and provide NASA information about the science objectives and needs of the community, both now and planning for the future. In this talk, I will give a brief overview of PhysPAG’s CRNSIG,...
