Abstract The unification of quantum mechanics and general relativity has long been elusive. Only recently have empirical predictions various possible theories gravity put to test, where a clear signal properties is still missing. dawn multi-messenger high-energy astrophysics tremendously beneficial, as it allows us study particles with much higher energies travelling longer distances than in terrestrial experiments, but more progress needed on several fronts. A thorough appraisal current...
We outline the science opportunities in areas of searches for dark matter and new physics offered by a proposed future MeV gamma-ray telescope, Galactic Explorer with Coded Aperture Mask Compton Telescope (GECCO). point out that such an instrument would play critical role opening up discovery window particle mass or sub-MeV range, disentangling origin mysterious 511 keV line emission Center region, potentially discovering Hawking evaporation from light primordial black holes.
Gamma-ray bursts were discovered by the Vela satellites in late 1960s, but they announced for first time exactly 50 years ago, 1973. The history of our understanding gamma-ray can be subdivided into several eras. We will highlight main discoveries about GRBs, as well path toward future that each GRB era could still indicate.

Due to the limited field of view (FoV) Cherenkov telescopes, time needed achieve target sensitivity for surveys extragalactic and Galactic sky is large. To optimize spent perform such surveys, a so-called “divergent mode” Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO) was proposed as an alternative observation strategy traditional parallel pointing. In divergent mode, each telescope points position in that slightly offset, outward direction, from original center view. This bring advantage increasing...
Lorentz Invariance Violations (LIV) are allowed within some models of Quantum Gravity and can manifest as energy-dependent effects on photon propagation. This lecture notes aim to provide an overview LIV data analysis in TeV gamma-ray astronomy, focusing the estimation limits quantum gravity energy scale using Cherenkov telescope data. The covers various topics, from production propagation signals, detection principles gamma rays with Imaging Air Telescopes. importance reconstruction...
Accurate localization of transient sources, which carries critical information about their nature, especially given recent discoveries the GW and high-energy neutrino events, falls within potential capabilities gamma-ray telescopes. Presently, ability for accurate in MeV photon energy range is limited by measurements complications. The Galactic Explorer with a Coded Aperture Mask Compton Telescope (“GECCO”) will provide such thanks to innovative use deployable coded aperture mask combination...

These lecture notes relate to the course on "Detection and phenomenology of cosmic neutrinos" held at second training school "Quantum Gravity in Multi-Messenger Approach" (COST Action CA 18108). The explore neutrino astronomy, covering its development, scientific motivations, current achievements. We start with an introduction historical context, delving then into detection techniques, telescopes. conclude some selected recent results field.
