COURSES (2012-2013):
  • PHYS-2201 - Electicity and Magnetism
  • PHYS-3901 - Intermediate Physics Lab (Winter 2013)
RESEARCH INTERESTS:

My main interests are in experimental subatomic physics, statistically sound precision measurements, fundamental symmetries and tests of the standard model. I am also interested in developing new detectors, and have worked on the large volume Time Projection Chambers (TPC)s for the near detector of T2K. My research program is working toward further understanding the properties of fundamental particles. In particular I am involved in neutrino oscillation studies with the Tokai to Kamioka experiment in Japan, and studies of the neutron electric dipole moment using ultra cold neutrons.
