Lee Barnby

Lee Barnby is an Associate Professor in Electronics and Mathematics at the College of Science and Engineering. His research focuses on high-energy particle physics, particularly in understanding the behavior of quarks and gluons in extreme conditions such as heavy-ion collisions. He actively contributes to the ALICE experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC), investigating phenomena like quark-gluon plasma formation, jet quenching, and collective dynamics. Recent work includes studies of beauty quark production, vector meson spin alignment, and femtoscopic correlations in Pb-Pb collisions. His publications span topics ranging from transverse momentum correlations to hypernuclei production, reflecting a deep engagement with both experimental and theoretical aspects of QCD and nuclear physics.
