In the last 150 years, thanks to the rapid development of new detection methods as well as swift progress in theoretical physics, our understanding of the Universe has changed dramatically. In this lecture we discuss the topics at the forefront of modern astroparticle physics: a discipline joining the microscopic world of particle physics with the macroscopic astrophysical sources. What causes the most powerful explosions observed in our Universe? Can they be the sources of the highest energy cosmic particles arriving from space? How do matter and radiation behave in the extreme conditions needed for their production? This lecture will give you state-of-the-art answers to these questions. You will learn about the different cosmic messengers: photons, cosmic rays, neutrinos, gravitational waves and how we detect them. You will discover the processes responsible for their production in cosmic sources and the theories we employ to explain them.
