REU Topic: Particle Physics
Prof. Ori Ganor
This is part of a program in string theory that explores what happens to extended objects in (eleven dimensional) M-theory when subjected to extreme (higher dimensional analog of) magnetic flux [...]
Prof. Heather Gray
Possible projects could include searches for the coupling of the Higgs boson to charm quarks, using novel approaches from machine learning to identify charm quarks [...]
Prof. Hitoshi Murayama
In the project, we will explore new theories of dark matter, their phenomenological implications, and experimental tests [...]
Prof. Haichen Wang
In this project, an undergraduate student will contribute to a collider physics measurement using data collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC [...]
Prof. Ben Safdi
In this project we will explore how to search for signatures of motivated particle dark matter scenarios in astrophysical and laboratory data sets.
