The symbiosis between particle physics and cosmology has virtually
become a conjugal relationship. Hence the 9th biennial Course of
the International School of Cosmic-Ray Astrophysics was designed to
bridge these formerly dispa- rate disciplines. This NATO Advanced
Study Institute (ASI) took place at the Ettore Majorana Centre in
Erice, Italy, June 20-30, 1992. Seventy participants from 17
countries enjoyed the opportunities for lively interactions as much
as they benefitted from the stimulating lectures. This volume is
based on a selection of lectures and shorter talks presented at the
sessions. Warm thanks are due to my co-director, Prof. J. P. Wefel
and to co-editor Dr. Rein Silberberg for their co- operation. The
support of NATO's Scientific Affairs Di- vision and of Dr. L. V. da
Cunha, Director of its ASI Pro- gramme, was invaluable. We also
acknowledge important con- tributions by the following: Prof. A.
Zichichi, Director of the Majorana Centre and its dedicated staff;
the Italian Ministry of Education; the Italian Ministry of
Scientific Research; the Sicilian Regional Government; the National
Science Foundation of the USA, the European Physical Soci- ety, and
Mrs. Shirley Ratner of Bethesda, Maryland. The Scientific Advisory
Committee consisted of Profs. P. V. Auger, G. P. S. Occhialini, B.
Rossi, M. M. Shapiro, R. Silberberg, J. A. Simpson, J. A. Van
Allen, J. P. Wefel, and A. Zichichi. All of the foregoing persons
and agencies helped make this ASI a memorable experience for the
parti- cipants.
