The Ohio State University has funded an Initiative to develop a Center for Cosmology and Astro-Particle Physics (CCAPP), building on the unique environment between the OSU Departments of Astronomy and Physics, to pursue research at the interface of cosmology, astrophysics, and high energy physics. Our primary objective is to create a world-leading interdisciplinary research center focused on the fundamental questions "What is the Universe made of?" and "How did it evolve?". The CCAPP will focus the relevant expertise (existing and new faculty, postdocs, technical and administrative staff, and graduate students) and research programs from both Astronomy and Physics on these fundamental questions. CCAPP research initiatives include dark energy (DES-LSST-SNAP), "multi-messenger" astro-particle physics (GLAST,AUGER,ANITA), dark matter, and the birth and growth of the Universe.
