IceCube sees evidence of extraterrestrial high-energy neutrinos
On May 15, 2013, the IceCube Collaboration presented during the IceCube Particle Astrophysics (IPA) conference in Madison, USA, its latest results on the search for astrophysical neutrinos. The report revealed that now 28 events have an energy above 30 TeV, which is more than what is expected for neutrinos produced in the Earth's atmosphere.
Galactic Knee and Extragalactic Ankle
23 April 213. KIT’s KASCADE-Grande
experiment has yielded the important result that a characteristic bend
in the energy spectrum of high-energy cosmic rays, also called “knee”,
is located at different energies for light and heavy primary particles.

AMS latest results
On April 3rd, 2013, the international team running the Alpha Magnetic
Spectrometer (AMS) announced the first results in its search for dark
matter.
"Over the coming months, AMS will be able to tell us conclusively whether these positrons are a signal for dark matter, or whether they have some other origin." Prof. Samuel Ting, AMS spokesperson.
