Description
Cosmic rays and neutrinos provide access to particle interactions at energies and densities beyond the reach of terrestrial experiments. Combined with gamma rays, they offer a multimessenger view of extreme astrophysical environments and a window onto relics from the early Universe. Here I will discuss how these messengers can be used to search for new physics, with emphasis on the cosmic neutrino background, dark matter, and other beyond the Standard Model phenomena. I will emphasize that the power of the multimessenger approach lies in its ability to disentangle new physics signals from astrophysical backgrounds, a key step toward any robust detection.
