Research on cosmic rays

Research on cosmic rays involves studying high-energy particles originating from outer space that constantly bombard Earth. Scientists analyze these particles' composition, energy levels, and origins to understand extreme astrophysical processes such as supernovae and black hole activity. This research helps uncover information about the universe's most energetic events, the behavior of matter under extreme conditions, and the effects on Earth's atmosphere and technology. Advanced detectors and observatories, both on the ground and in space, are used to capture and analyze cosmic rays, contributing to our knowledge of cosmic phenomena and fundamental physics.
