Abstract
In the fields of solar physics, space weather, and high-energy atmospheric physics, the physicists at Aragats have established the Cosmic Ray Division of Yerevan Physics Institute as a leading institution globally. The SEVAN network, which spans across the peaks of Armenia, Eastern Europe, and Germany, is a versatile facility dedicated to comprehensive research in atmospheric and solar physics as well as space weather phenomena. Notable contributions from the CRD include elucidating the origins and acceleration mechanisms of Galactic Cosmic Rays and determining the upper limits of solar proton acceleration, which exceed 20 GeV, among other achievements.
