Multi-messenger science potential with current and future detectors: Multi-messenger science potential with current and future detectors

Hyper-Kamiokande is a next generation neutrino and nucleon decay experiment that is expected to start taking data in 2027. In this talk, I will introduce the experiment and give a brief update on its current status. I will then discuss its neutrino astronomy programme, with a special focus on supernova neutrinos.
The primary goal of a Neutrino Telescope is the search for astrophysical neutrinos in the TeV-PeV range. Several experimental activities have been developed aiming at the operation of a High Energy Neutrino Telescope: a detector sensitive to the Cherenkov light originated by the propagation, in a transparent medium, of relativistic charged particles generated by neutrino interactions. In the...
The HAWC observatory has been taking continuous high-statistics measurements of TeV gamma rays and cosmic rays from two-thirds of the sky since commencing full operations in 2015. With its wide-angle survey capability, and a sensitivity to photon energies reaching over 100 TeV, HAWC is advancing studies of a diverse set of sources in the galactic plane, pushing the search for dark matter and...
Einstein Telescope (ET) is the pan-European project aiming to the realisation of a new generation gravitational wave observatory. ET promises a gain in sensitivity from one to some orders of magnitude with respect the current advanced detectors, with a particular attention at the low frequency band, below 10Hz. In order to achieve these performances, an innovative design and an intense...
The next decade of Universe exploration is expected to undergo a revolution for the transient astrophysics. The third generation of gravitational-wave (GW) observatories, such as Einstein Telescope (ET) and Cosmic Explorer (CE) will allow us for the first time to observe GWs along the cosmic history back to the cosmological dark ages. These observatories will be an unprecedented resource to...
Very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray astroparticle physics is a relatively young field, and observations over the past decade have surprisingly revealed almost two hundred VHE emitters which appear to act as cosmic particle accelerators. These sources are an important component of the Universe, influencing the evolution of stars and galaxies. At the same time, they also act as a probe of physics...
What is now referred to as multi-messenger and multi-frequency astrophysics has been at the very basis of the investigation of Cosmic Rays for many decades now: the spectrum and morphology of Galactic gamma ray and radio emission have represented powerful tools to unveil the origin of the cosmic radiation. Neutrinos and gravitational waves have recently joined the scene. The recent measurement...
