Research Interests

  • I study the quantum field theory of the early universe and its applications to important open problems in particle physics and cosmology; the search for physics beyond the Standard Model in high energy collisions at the Large Hadron Collider and possible future colliders; and tests of fundamental symmetries and neutrino properties at low- and high-energies. I especially want to know answers to the following questions: 1.Why does the universe contain more matter than anti-matter? 2.How was electroweak symmetry was broken in the hot early universe? 3.What makes up the dark matter and how does it interact? 4.What is the origin of the tiny, non-vanishing neutrino masses? 5.How do quantum field theories work at non-zero temperature and in non-equilibrium environments? Specific topics in my research that reflect my scientific curiosity include: 1.Physics beyond the Standard Model 2.Electroweak phase transition 3.Baryogenesis 4.Non-equilibrium and early universe quantum field theory 5.Higgs boson properties and extended Higgs sectors 6.Dark Matter 7.Tests of fundamental symmetries 8.Neutrino properties 9.Effective Field Theory 10.Collider phenomenology 11.Hadron structure and non-perturbative QCD
