Research

I work in Experimental High Energy Physics, studying fundamental particles and their interactions at the world’s largest accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). LHC is hosted by CERN in the city of Geneva near the French-Swiss border. LHC has been colliding protons from 2009 onwards at different centre-of-mass energies, ranging from 900 GeV to 13.6 TeV.  There are 4 major experiments being conducted in order to study the products of these collisions. I worked with the CMS detector for my Ph.D. and the ATLAS detector for my post-doctoral positions. My research spans from the discovery of the Higgs boson to ongoing searches for dark matter and physics beyond the Standard Model.

Key Research Areas:

• Higgs Boson Studies: Contributed to the discovery of the Higgs boson during my Ph.D. through analyses of associated Higgs production (WH→WWW∗→lνlνlν) using the CMS detector at LHC.

• Dark Matter Searches: Led analyses in the ATLAS experiment focused on detecting dark matter signatures and constraining new physics models.

• Collider Data Analysis: Expertise in reconstructing rare events, optimizing selection criteria, and applying advanced statistical techniques to large datasets.

• Detector and Upgrade Work: Experience with detector performance studies and supporting upgrades for improved sensitivity at the LHC.

• Global Collaborations: Over 8 years of research experience working at CERN with international teams from Canada, the United States, Europe, China, and India.
