The diffuse emission of gamma-rays and neutrinos, produced by interactions of cosmic rays with interstellar matter in the Milky Way, provides valuable insights into cosmic ray propagation and Galactic processes. Emission models…

Weak gravitational lensing has become a widely used effect to characterise the dark-matter distribution on large scales in the Universe by measuring galaxy ellipticities and their statistical correlations. We present the first weak…

The public GALPROP code gives a fully numerical solution for the spectrum of cosmic rays propagating through a linear Galactic wind directed outwards from the Galactic plane in the framework of a cylindrical diffusion model. Alternatively,…

We present results from a program of optical spectroscopy for 23 nearby galaxy emission-line nuclei. This investigation takes advantage of the spatial resolution of the Hubble Space Telescope to study the structure and energetics of the…

Low-frequency radio observations of neutral hydrogen during and before the epoch of cosmic reionization will provide ~ 1000 quasi-independent source planes, each of precisely known redshift, if a resolution of ~1 arcminutes or better can be…

The "Cosmic Evolution Survey" (COSMOS) enables the study of the Spectral Energy Distributions (SEDs) of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) because of the deep coverage and rich sampling of frequencies from X-ray to radio. Here we present a SED…

Cosmic ray muons have emerged as a non-conventional high-energy radiation probe to monitor dense and large objects. Muons are the most abundant cosmic radiation on Earth, however, their flux at sea level is approximately 10,000 min^-1m^-2…
