We show that at wavelengths comparable to the length of the shower produced by an Ultra-High Energy cosmic ray or neutrino, radio signals are an extremely efficient way to detect these particles. First results are presented of an analysis of 20 hours of observation data for NuMoon project using the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope to search for short radio pulses from the Moon. A limit on the neutrino flux is set that is a factor four better than the current one (based on FORTE).

The NuMoon project uses the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope to search for short radio pulses from the Moon. These pulses are created when an ultra high energy cosmic ray or neutrino initiates a particle cascade inside the Moons regolith. The cas cade has a negative charge excess and moves faster than the local speed of light, which causes coherent Cherenkov radiation to be emitted. With 100 hours of data, a limit on the neutrino flux can be set that is an order of magnitude better than the current one (based on FORTE). We present an analysis of the first 10 hours of data.

To detect or exclude the existence of hidden sector photons or axion like particles, a table-top microwaves shining through the wall experiment has been set up at CERN. An overview of the experimental layout is given, the technical challenges involve d are reviewed and the measurement procedure including data-evaluation and its results to date are shown.

In this report we present the status of the MAgnetized Disk and Mirror Axion eXperiment (MADMAX), the first dielectric haloscope for the direct search of dark matter axions in the mass range of 40 to 400 $mu$eV. MADMAX will consist of several paralle l dielectric disks, which are placed in a strong magnetic field and with adjustable separations. This setting is expected to allow for an observable emission of axion induced electromagnetic waves at a frequency between 10 and 100 GHz corresponding to the axion mass. The present document orignated from a status report to the DESY PRC in 2019.
The visitor instrument PIONIER provides VLTI with improved imaging capabilities and sensitivity. The instrument started routinely delivering scientific data in November 2010, that is less than 12 months after being approved by the ESO Science and Tec hnical Committee. We recall the challenges that had to be tackled to design, built and commission PIONIER. We summarize the typical performances and some astrophysical results obtained so far. We conclude this paper by summarizing lessons learned.
TAROT-1 is an automatic, autonomous ground based observatory whose primary goal is the rapid detection of the optical counterparts of cosmic gamma-ray burst sources. It will be able to begin imaging any GRB localization 8 seconds after receipt of an alert from CGRO/BATSE or HETE-2. TAROT-1 will reach the 17th V magnitude in 10 seconds, at a 10$sigma$ confidence level. TAROT will be able to observe GRB positions given by Beppo-SAX or RXTE, EUV transients from ALEXIS alerts, etc. TAROT will also study a wide range of secondary objectives and will feature a complete automatic data analysis system, and a powerful scheduling software. TAROT will be installed this fall on the Plateau du Calern, 1200m above sea level. We report on the status of the project.
