Nuclear and Elementary Particle Astrophysics

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The research efforts to be carried out will involve various aspects at the interface of particle physics, nuclear physics and astrophysics. General areas of this interface include cosmology, supernova physics and cosmic ray physics. Particular long term projects include refinement of Big Bang nucleosynthesis constraints and predictions, including studies of light element evolution, studies of the quark-hadron transition, nucleochronology, supernova neutrino physics in the light of SN 1987 A, studies of the interplay of particle physics models with galaxy and structure formation,m and implications of the ultra high energy cosmic ray spectrum on physics and astrophysics.
