SFB1491 - Cosmic Interacting Matters

In this CRC, we will systematically investigate the interplay of matter and energy with special consideration of plasma and particle physics; particular concern will be given to the energy transfer between magnetic fields, cosmic rays, baryonic matter, and dark matter. In doing so, we will decisively investigate the fundamental properties of matter needed to properly model and understand signatures of nonthermal emission in galaxies. By bridging the gap between multiple different sub-disciplines in physics – astro-, plasma-, astroparticle-, and particle physics – we aim to reach the central goal of creating a unifying view on cosmic interacting matter.
