Astroparticle physics

INFN astroparticle physics and neutrino physics research activities deal with a broad spectrum of scientific problems. The experimental activities are subdivided into the following lines:

  • the study of the neutrino properties mainly performed at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS);
  • the search for rare processes;
  • the study of the cosmic rays performed by ground based, underwater or space experiments;
  • the search for gravitational waves;
  • general physics experiments dealing with precise tests of quantum electrodynamics and quantum mechanics.
