The enormous advances in observational techniques over the last two decades has produced
a wealth of data and unexpected discoveries which have helped to reshape astrophysics
as a field with well-formulated theories and sophisticated numerical calculations.
In nuclear particle physics, plasma physics, as well as in general relativity, the
Universe has become a laboratory for cutting-edge research. The courses collected
in the book are intended to provide students with this insight, giving a general background
on each topic such as cosmic rays, nuclear and neutrino astrophysics, solar physics
and strong fields, as well as a presentation of the current research and open problems.
The book is aimed at graduate students in physics and astrophysics, as well as researchers,
bridging a gap between the specialized reviews and the comprehensive books
