From successes over the past decades, we know that neutrino astronomy is both possible and powerful. But now what? I review the frontiers of this field and present a vision for its future. Success will have wide implications for both physics and astronomy.

In this talk I will give an overview of cosmological constraints on fundamental physics. There are now such a wide variety of cosmological probes — including supernovae, gravitational waves, large scale structure, peculiar velocities, gravitational lensing, the cosmic microwave background, and more — that any new theory is constrained on many sides. At the same time some small tensions are...

I will discuss two new ideas for using charged particles for dark matter detection. First, we find that ion traps allow sensitive searches for millicharged dark matter. Motivated by both particle physics and quantum information, significant experimental work has gone into isolating the ions from the environment. Millicharged dark matter would provide an irreducible source of heating for a...
