MAGIC (Major Atmospheric Gamma-ray Imaging Cherenkov telescopes) is a system of two Cherenkov telescopes located on the Canary island of La Palma (Spain), at the Roque de Los Muchachos Observatory. MAGIC telescopes are operating in stereo mode since 2009. Their design and configuration, together with a dedicated trigger system developed ad-hoc, allows us to reach an energy threshold of 15GeV....

The Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System (VERITAS) is an array of four 12m imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes located in Southern Arizona, USA. Sensitive to gamma rays in the ~80 GeV to >30 TeV energy range, VERITAS is amongst the most sensitive instruments currently operating within this energy regime. VERITAS operates a diverse science program including studies of...

Gamma ray detectors are key for understanding the non-thermal processes in our universe, usually associated with highly energetic processes in black hole jets, neutron stars or stellar explosions. They are also a unique tool in Fundamental Physics and Cosmology, and, together with cosmic ray, neutrino and gravitational wave detectors, have inaugurated the field of multimessenger astronomy.

Gamma-ray binaries are binary systems producing most of their electromagnetic output in gamma rays above 1 MeV. Their multi-wavelength emission are orbitally modulated from radio to TeV and there are only a handful of known gamma-ray binaries. In this talk I will try to review previous results on gamma-ray binaries and also the recent progresses.

The dark matter exists from many cosmological indirect evidences. In order to search dark matter directly, energy deposition due to interactions between dark matters and normal matters can be measured with multiple advanced techniques. This talk will summarize the current and planned dark matter direct detection experiments with dark matter mass range from $\rm MeV/c^2$ to $\rm TeV/c^2$,...

The Dark Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE), primarily designed to directly measure high energy cosmic rays and gammas in space, was launched into 500 km orbit successfully on December 17th, 2017, and, since then, it is in continuous data taking. DAMPE consists four sub-detectors: top layers of plastic scintillators as a charged measurement detector, a 12 layers silicon strip tracker, an imaging...

The CALorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET), developed and operated by Japan in collaboration with Italy and the United States, is a high-energy astroparticle physics experiment installed on the International Space Station (ISS). Its mission goals include investigating the possible presence of nearby sources of high-energy electrons, performing direct measurements of observables sensitive to...

Astrophysical and cosmological observations currently provide the only robust, empirical measurements of dark matter. Astronomical observations with large-scale surveys can provide necessary guidance for the experimental dark matter program. In this talk, I will summarize astrophysical observations that can constrain the fundamental physics of dark matter in the era of modern surveys. I will...

Light (e.g. sub-GeV) WIMPs might be a viable model if the Standard Model is extended by new dark sector degrees of freedom. Many of these dark matter candidates would fall below the thresholds of direct detection experiments. I present new results on (almost) model-independent constraints on properties of dark matter that utilize A. Acceleration of light dark matter via collision with...

In recent years, the search for dark matter with sub-GeV masses has been targeted by a variety of novel experiments with unprecedented sensitivity to low energy depositions.
In this talk, we review the theoretical motivations behind these experiments and the challenges that need to be overcome in order to make a leap forward in detection reach.
In particular, we discuss new explanations...

The IceCube Neutrino Observatory consists of one cubic kilometer of deep transparent Antarctic ice that has been transformed into a neutrino telescope at the South Pole. It has been operating in its full configuration for the past 10 years. TeV-PeV neutrinos of cosmic origin have been discovered with an energy flux comparable to that of gamma rays and cosmic rays. High-energy neutrinos are...

The progress in the construction and operation of the Baikal-GVD is reported. The detector is designed for search for high energy neutrinos whose sources are not yet reliably identified. It currently includes 2304 optical modules arranged on 64 strings, providing an effective volume of 0.4 km3 for cascades with energy above 100 TeV. We review the scientific
case for Baikal-GVD, the...

Ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECR) are the most energetic known particles of the Universe, being accelerated to energies up to 7 orders of magnitude higher than those achieved in human-made accelerators. Their origins, however, remain an intriguing puzzle even decades after their discovery. In this review, the current status of this puzzle will be presented, discussing the latest...

The Telescope Array (TA) is an ultra-high energy cosmic ray detector, the largest in the Northern Hemisphere, sensitive to cosmic rays with energies from 1 PeV to above 100 EeV. The main detector is a hybrid detector consisting of an array of 507 surface detectors covering 700 km$^2$ overlooked by three fluorescence telescope detector stations. The energy range has been extended at the low end...

Our understanding of the characteristics of the highest energy cosmic rays has improved enormously with the operation of the Pierre Auger Observatory, situated in western Argentina. Its extremely large collecting area (3000 square kilometres), coupled with the layers of cross-checks provided by two fundamentally different detection techniques (surface and fluorescence detectors) has led to...
