The 1 lecture ''Extending the frontiers of particle physics'' was given on 6 February 2017. It's presentation is attached and the record is here

The following questions were put at this lecture:
Steve Branchu: What is the scale V ?
Yaroslav Nikitenko: What is the physical meaning of local vs global symmetry apart from the mathematical formula?

The 2 lecture ''Inflation, baryosynthesis, dark matter/energy and BSM physics'' was given on 13 February 2017. It's presentation is attached and the record is here

The following question was put at this lecture:
Steve Branchu: What is the meaning of GUT?

The 3 lecture "Cosmoarcheology (cosmological probes for particle physics)" was given on 20 February 2017.
It's presentation is attached and the record is here

The following questions were put at this lecture
Yaroslav Nikitenko: What is k_epsilon?
Yaroslav Nikitenko: What do you call ordinary particles?
Yaroslav Nikitenko: What is k_0?
Steve Branchu: why there are 2 error values for Y_p(obs) ?

Following the request by
Yaroslav Nikitenko: Could you please write sources or good books on these lecture topics to the forum.

I can recommend my books

M.Yu.Khlopov Cosmoparticle physics. World Scientific. 1999

M.Yu.Khlopov, S.G.Rubin.
Cosmological Pattern of Microphysics in the Inflationary Universe, Kluwer
Academic Publishers, Dordrecht, 295 pp., 2004

Maxim Khlopov. Fundamentals of Cosmic particle physics. CISP-Springer. Cambridge, 2012

on which my course is based. I can only greet your use of other possible books or sources on this subject.

Lecture 4 "Cosmophenomenology of new physics (Cosmological impact of particle theories)" was given on 27 February 2017. It's presentation is attached and the record is here

The following questions were put during this lecture
Yaroslav Nikitenko: What is a?

Yaroslav Nikitenko: What is e-folding?

Yaroslav Nikitenko: How can a wall form a black hole? What is the physical meaning of a wall? Is the wall global?

Yaroslav Nikitenko: Region in space?

Yaroslav Nikitenko: Does this energy come from the field? Which field? Can we measure that field?

Yaroslav Nikitenko: So this means there are fields for different particles, hense different walls?

In addition to answer to these questions at the lecture: one should note that wall is a thin layer in which false vacuum energy density is concentrated, so that inside the wall the equation of state is p=- epsilon. If it is infinite it dominates locally in the Universe causing superluminal expansion, if closed it either decays or collapses in black hole.

Lecture 5 Cosmic rays (1 lecture by D.Semikoz) was given on 6 March 2017. It's presentation is attached and the record is here

The following question was put in discussion
Albino Hernandez: is there any average of how much percent of CRs at Earth come from extragalactic sources?

Lecture 6 Gamma ray astrophysics (2 lecture by D.Semikoz) was given on 13 March 2017. It's presentation is attached and the record is here

The following questions were put during this lecture:
Yaroslav Nikitenko: What is 5% of flux? 5% on energy or square?
Yaroslav Nikitenko: What is TS? And what is the precision on the axes?
Yaroslav Nikitenko: It seems it can't resolve point-like sources?
Yaroslav Nikitenko: What is \Omega?
Yaroslav Nikitenko: On the previous slide, what do you call Fe60 flux?
Yaroslav Nikitenko: Do you mean Fe60 comes from cosmic rays continously?
Yaroslav Nikitenko: How do you know that it is 2.2 Myr? How do you measure that time?
