AMES Workshop - Expanding Multimessenger Astroparticle Physics

Energetic particles come from the cosmos, and their origins have been among the biggest enigmas in astroparticle physics. It is believed that the highest-energy cosmic rays are accelerated by extreme astrophysical objects involving black holes and neutron stars, and understanding the mechanisms of astroparticle production is important for not only revealing nonthermal aspects of the universe but also obtaining clues to physics beyond the Standard Model. We are entering the golden era of multimessenger astrophysics, and it is now crucial to take into account all relevant microphysical processes to maximally extract astrophysical information from available multimessenger data and give viable theoretical interpretations without missing various fundamental constraints. Astrophysical Multimessenger Emission Simulator (AMES) has been developed to quantitatively compute high-energy particle emission from different astrophysical sources including active galactic nuclei, gamma-ray bursts, and supernovae. We will discuss technical details and possible applications in the workshop.
