The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the most powerful particle accelerator ever built and researchers use its data to study what the universe was like shortly after the big bang. Researchers at Berkeley and the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) play a key role in all aspects of the ATLAS...

Do you want to contribute to the development of future particle colliders? We are currently developing key analysis tools for future superconducting magnets. The main scope of these tools will be the ability to predict the superconting coil mechanical properties and failure mechanisms during their operation. We are looking for...

High-energy physics data analysis deals with a huge amount of data. Machine learning applications are often developed to assist the analysis of data and to improve our understanding of fundamental physics laws. My research group is developing multiple applications for high energy physics experiments, such as the ATLAS experiment...

Reliably simulating detector response to hadrons is crucial for almost all physics programs at the Large Hadron Collider. The core component of such simulation is the modeling of hadronic interactions. Unfortunately, there is no first-principle theory guidance. The current state-of-the-art simulation tool, Geant4, exploits phenomenology-inspired...
