Sumario:<!--HTML-->The lectures cover recent topics in astroparticle physics. After a general introduction to the field, the first lecture will explain the origin of the elements in the universe (Big Bang Nucleosynthesis) and will present the studies of the cosmic microwave background and of its anisotropies. The next lecture will cover the ongoing experiments dedicated to the study of dark matter (direct detection or microlensing experiments) and dark energy (in particular the experiments searching for supernovae). The last lecture will be devoted to high energy astrophysics, large scale cosmic ray detectors and high energy neutrino detectors. Prerequisite knowledge: Basic knowledge of physics and astrophysics
