Mike Sas

Mike Sas is a Researcher at Utrecht University's Faculty of Science, affiliated with the Sub Gravitational and Subatomic Physics (GRASP) group. His work centers on experimental high-energy physics using Large Hadron Collider (LHC) data, particularly through the ALICE collaboration.

His research portfolio spans:

• Particle and nuclear physics
• Quark-gluon plasma characterization
• Heavy-ion and proton-proton collision dynamics
• Femtoscopic emission source analysis
• Direct-photon production mechanisms
• High-multiplicity collision phenomena

Recent publications (2025) reveal intense focus on baryon/hadron emission sources, QGP thermodynamics, and precision measurements in pp/Pb-Pb collisions. His ALICE collaboration work leverages transverse momentum analysis and femtoscopy to probe quantum chromodynamics in extreme conditions, with strong emphasis on collision systematics across pp, p-Pb, and Pb-Pb environments.

Sas contributes to Utrecht's GRASP research ecosystem, which investigates fundamental subatomic phenomena through experimental and theoretical frameworks connected to major CERN initiatives.
