The IceCube neutrino observatory has not only discovered the existence of a cosmic neutrino component, but has also made precise measurements of the TeV atmospheric neutrino flux. Using these high-energy atmospheric neutrinos and the astrophysical neutrinos I will present results of searches for new neutrino flavors and interactions. On the former, I will report the status of searches for eV...

The extremely accurate charged cosmic-ray data recently provided by the AMS collaboration and the gamma-ray data from Fermi-LAT and other experiments allowed to enter a new era of precision measurements in the CR field, and offer for the first time the unique opportunity to investigate different transport properties in different regions of the Galaxy. I will review the status of the field, the...

The light emitted by all galaxies across the history of the Universe is encoded in the intensity of the extragalactic background light (EBL), the diffuse cosmic radiation field at ultraviolet, optical, and infrared wavelengths. The EBL is a source of opacity for high-energy γ rays via the photon-photon interaction (γγ → e+e−), leaving a characteristic attenuation imprint in the spectra of...
