Research Pillars
Particle Physics
About this Pillar
Particle Physics represents the scientific motivation underlying much of the group's research. The program focuses on precision measurements of the Standard Model, searches for physics beyond the Standard Model, and the application of emerging computational and quantum-information techniques to collider physics. Current activities include top-quark physics, Higgs physics, quantum information observables, precision phenomenology, and preparations for future collider experiments.
Detector Mechanics and Scientific Instrumentation
About this Pillar
Detector Mechanics represents the group's core expertise in the design, analysis, fabrication, and qualification of precision scientific instrumentation. This research encompasses lightweight composite structures, thermal management, cooling technologies, detector integration, precision mechanics, and instrumentation development for next-generation particle physics experiments.
Quantum Machine Learning
About this Pillar
Quantum Machine Learning represents the intersection of quantum information science, machine learning, and scientific computing. The group's activities range from the development of quantum algorithms for optimization and inference to hybrid quantum-classical workflows, quantum-enhanced scientific observables, and workforce development in emerging quantum technologies. A distinguishing feature of this pillar is its strong connection to the other research areas. Quantum algorithms support optimization problems arising in detector design and operations, while quantum-information concepts provide entirely new observables for experimental particle physics.
Applied Physics
About this Pillar
Applied Physics encompasses technology development motivated by challenges originating within scientific instrumentation but extending beyond high-energy physics. Research in this pillar includes advanced materials, thermal systems, composite structures, additive manufacturing, engineering analysis, and technology transfer into broader scientific and industrial applications.
