The eleventh High Energy Astrophysics in Southern Africa 2024 (HEASA 2024) continued its mission of uniting scientists from the Southern African region, the African continent, and around the world who share an interest in high-energy astrophysical phenomena.

The topics discussed at HEASA 2024 include theoretical aspects, multi-wavelength observations, and multi-messenger studies of astrophysical sources. These sources encompass a wide range, such as active galactic nuclei (AGNs), galaxy systems, gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), X-ray/gamma-ray binaries, supernovae and supernova remnants, neutron stars, pulsars, pulsar wind nebulae, and cataclysmic variables (CVs). Additionally, the conference explored modern aspects of Astro-particle physics.

The High Energy Astrophysics in Southern Africa 2024 (HEASA 2024) conference was hosted by the School of Physics, University of the Witwatersrand (Wits) at the Wits Rural Facility from October 2nd to October 4th, 2024. It was sponsored by the Department of Science and Innovation (DSI) and the National Research Foundation (NRF) of South Africa through the South African Gamma-Ray Astronomy Programme (SA-GAMMA).
