CF7 covers cosmic probes of fundamental physics topics beyond Dark Matter and Dark Energy using gravitational waves, cosmic rays, gamma rays, and neutrinos, as well as their combined studies to facilitate the multi-messenger science.

This includes measurements of neutrino properties from cosmology (overlap with NF 5), tests of general relativity, emergent spacetime (overlap with CF2, 3, 5), black hole information with gravitational waves, the tension between local distance ladder measurements and cosmic microwave background estimates of the Hubble constant, equation of state of dense nuclear matter and hadron-quark gluon phase transitions, particle acceleration in astrophysical environments, bread-and-butter perturbative QCD and hadronic physics of extensive air showers, Lorentz Invariance Violation, search for evaporating primordial black holes, and exotic particles such as SUSY q-balls and axions.
