About
Dr. Dominic Brailsford is a Research Fellow in the Department of Physics at Lancaster University. His research focuses on subatomic neutrinos, their detectors, and related phenomena, with active participation in major international experiments: the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) at Fermilab, the Short Baseline Near Detector (SBND) at Fermilab, the Tokai to Kamioka (T2K) experiment in Japan, and the High Pressure Time Projection Chamber (HPTPC) at CERN collaboration.
- Affiliation: Department of Physics, Lancaster University
- Collaborations: DUNE, SBND, T2K, ICARUS, CERN HPTPC
Key research areas include neutrino physics, particle detector development (particularly liquid argon Time Projection Chambers), experimental physics methodologies, and computational tools for neutrino experiments. His work spans detector design, ionization signal analysis, and software development for large-scale collaborations.
Recent publications highlight advancements in liquid argon TPC algorithms, calibration techniques, and neutrino detection infrastructure. His research also intersects with supernova neutrino studies, hidden sector scalar searches, and electron-ion recombination modeling.
