SUMMARY:Multi-messenger Astrophysics: Probing Compact Objects with Cos
 mic Particles \, Physics Department Colloquium\, Ke Fang\, Stanford Un
 iversity
DESCRIPTION:The study of compact stellar remnants such as black holes 
 and neutron stars is an important component of modern astrophysics. Re
 cent observations of the first neutron star merger event and an active
  galactic nucleus as the first high-energy neutrino source open a new 
 way to study compact objects using multi-messengers. The key to coordi
 nated detection and interpretation of multiple messenger signals\, nam
 ely\, electromagnetic radiation\, cosmic rays\, neutrinos\, and gravit
 ational waves\, is to understand the link between the messengers. We t
 ry to answer this question from both theoretical and observational per
 spectives. We study high-energy particle propagation in the vicinity o
 f magnetar-powered transients and black hole jets using numerical simu
 lation. We also investigate analysis frameworks aiming to exploit data
  across multiple wavelengths and messengers. We close the talk by over
 looking the future of Multi-messenger Astrophysics\, in light of upcom
 ing facilities such as SWGO and LSST\, as well as new questions brough
 t by recent observations.
