Particle Astrophysics

Hey, if you have access to the journal Science, or if your school has site-wide accces to it, don't miss the special coverage on particle astrophysics in Jan 5, 2007 issue. This is a very good and comprehensive coverage of the state of art of this field, especially on the wide-ranging experimental efforts ranging from the detecting neutrinos passing through the Antartica ice to the array of detectors in the pampas of Argentina.

I am involved in this in an indirect way via the AirFly project that I've described earlier. This is part of the huge Auger Observatory effort that is also described in the Science journal coverage. So I have a bit of a keen interest in it, even though technically, it isn't my field of study.
