With the lack of knowledge of the nature of dark matter and dark energy constituting the majority of our Universe and the search for a unified theory able to describe all particle interactions, the hunt for new physics is nowadays compelling and the astrophysical environment represents a favored place for such studies. We show the high discovery potential of the ASTRI Mini-Array in this respect to study several scenarios: axion-like particles, Lorentz invariance violation, hadron beam.
