Hey
I didnt know where to put this

so the masters projects we can do for next year came out ..
but I am not really interested in any of them

However we can propose projects

So i was thinking if anyone could lead me in the right direction
Im want something in either COSMOLOGY or THEORETICAL PARTICLE PHYSICS or Both LOL

There are experimental particle and astro projects .. But I don't enjoy them
For particle physics has to be within cosmic rays i think
and there is no real cosmology research so .. they do stuff mostly todo with stars and a galaxies

If there's any half way research which , that would be perfect

.I'm sorry if this isn't the right place to post this.If you're interested in cosmology and theoretical particle physics, there are a few options for you to consider. Depending on your level of expertise and interest, you could propose a project related to one or both of these topics. Some areas that may be interesting to explore include dark matter and dark energy, the Cosmic Microwave Background, inflation theory, and grand unified theories. You could also look into research related to high-energy cosmic rays, which is an area of particle physics. Additionally, you could consider researching the connections between cosmology and particle physics, such as how the Big Bang and inflationary models can be used to explain certain particle physics phenomena. Good luck with your research!
