In this talk I will make a few comments on three classes of sources: supernova remnants, pulsar-wind nebulae, and gamma-ray binaries. In the first part, on SNRs, I will comment on the recent detection of hadronic gamma-rays and prospects for future population analysis. Regarding PWNe i will focus on young TeV emitting systems, from the point of view of time-dependent modeling of the...

I shall review the advances of our understanding of the First order Fermi acceleration of particles in shocks and sites of magnetic reconnection. I shall discuss how magnetic field generation in the shock precursor allows to accelerate cosmic rays to higher energies and how cosmic ray superdiffusion changes the accepted acceleration picture. I shall also discuss the process of fast...

It is amazing to realize that in the current description of Galactic propagation of cosmic rays (CR), sources are not point-like, at least for primary species like protons and helium nuclei. Considering that sources as localized in space and time is more realistic, but leads to puzzling results.
Actually, in the Myriad model, the Galactic variance of, say, the proton flux at the Earth is...

We report on the high-resolution measurements of cosmic ray spectrum and mass composition from the knee region up to 1 EeV based on one year of data collected with IceCube/IceTop. Complementary to the PeV neutrinos, IceCube measures extensive air showers of PeV cosmic rays on the surface with the IceTop array and the penetrating high energy muon bundles with the matrix of detectors in deep...

The Planck satellite has mapped the cosmic microwave background (CMB) with unprecedented precision. An accurate determination of many cosmological parameters was possible and a number of early Universe scenarios could be constrained. The Planck mission, its main scientific results, and the anomalies seen in the CMB sky will be discussed in this talk. The impact of Galactic cosmic rays on the...

Magnetic fields appear to be ubiquitous in astrophysical environments. The existence of magnetic fields in the large-scale structure (LSS) of the universe has been established through observations of Faraday rotation and synchrotron emission, as well as through recent gamma-ray observations, although their nature and origin remain controversial and largely unknown. In this talk, we first...

Cosmological shock waves result from supersonic flow motions induced by hierarchical clustering of nonlinear structures in the universe. These collisionless shocks are thought to accelerate high-energy cosmic rays (CRs) via diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) mechanism. In this talk, we will review 1) the properties and energetics of shocks formed in cosmological structure formation...

Thanks to giant extensive air-showers observatories, such as the Pierre Auger Observatory and the Telescope Array, we now know that the sources of ultrahigh energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) are extragalactic. We also know that either they interact with the CMB as predicted or they run out of energy at the same energy scale of the CMB interactions! Their composition is either surprising (dominated...

The intra cluster medium is a dynamically active environment, in which dissipation of large motions and acceleration of cosmic rays are likely ubiquitous processes. I will review the present theoretical uncertainties and firm conclusions on cosmic rays in the intra cluster medium, coming from broad-band observations and the updated cosmological numerical modelling of these systems.

I will review the present status of the understanding of the Near Infrared Background light. In particular I will focus on recent experimental and theoretical progresses that hint at the possibility that a fraction of this cosmic light traces the most distant galaxies and, even more likely, the first black holes, thus opening an exciting pathway to study the early Universe.
