SUMMARY:Exploring Nature's Extreme Accelerators\, Physics Department C
olloquium\, Julie McEnery\, NASA
DESCRIPTION:Cosmic rays\, neutrinos and gamma rays provide three diffe
rent ways to identify and explore locations of the most efficient astr
ophysical particle accelerators in the universe. In the past decade we
have transformed our understanding of the extreme universe. Ground-br
eaking gamma-ray observations with Fermi\, HAWC and IACTs have uncover
ed many new classes of sources and provided detailed information on th
ese objects\; IceCube has broken new ground by observing astrophysical
neutrinos\; and we have refined our understanding of the origin of co
smic rays. In this talk\, I will discuss some of the recent breakthrou
ghs in the study of cosmic accelerators.

\nA reception and
a concert will follow the colloquium
