Research Area

Experimental Particle Physics

Particle physicists study the indivisible constituents of matter and energy: the “sub-atomic” particles and the carriers of fundamental forces. My collaborators and I are particularly interested in the study of neutrinos and the weak fundamental force. Current research projects include the KamLAND and Double Chooz neutrino oscillation experiments.
