Astroparticle Physics:   Exploring the Universe Through High-Energy Particles Rayyan Abdullah Astroparticle physics is a fascinating field that combines the study of particles and their interactions with the universe at large. It is a discipline that has seen rapid growth over the last few decades, and it promises to unlock some of the biggest mysteries in the universe. In this article, we will delve into the world of astroparticle physics, exploring its origins, key concepts, and the exciting discoveries that have been made in recent years.                                                                                                                         Credit - Uppsala University, Sweden Astroparticle physics is a relatively new field that emerged in the 1990s. Its origins can be traced back to the discovery of cosmic rays in the early 20th century. These are high-energy particles that originate from outside the solar system and are constantly bombarding the Earth. They were fir
