Tim Cohen

Tim Cohen is an Associate Professor of Physics at the University of Oregon, with affiliations at CERN and EPFL's Lausanne Theory Physics Laboratory. He is based at the Institute for Fundamental Science within the Department of Physics at the University of Oregon's College of Arts and Sciences. His research focuses on theoretical particle physics, particularly exploring phenomena beyond the Standard Model.

Dr. Cohen's research interests center on particle physics beyond the Standard Model, with specific expertise in Large Hadron Collider phenomenology, effective field theory, electroweak naturalness, and dark matter. His work bridges theoretical frameworks with experimental possibilities at major particle physics facilities. His research program encompasses both theoretical developments in quantum field theory and practical applications to collider physics and cosmology.

Analysis of his recent publications reveals a strong focus on effective field theory applications, de Sitter space physics, and dark sector phenomenology. His work demonstrates sophisticated mathematical approaches to problems in quantum field theory while maintaining connections to observable phenomena at particle colliders and in cosmological settings. He frequently collaborates with researchers across institutions including CERN, EPFL, and various US universities.

Dr. Cohen serves as a senior researcher with active roles at multiple institutions, contributing to major collaborative efforts such as the Snowmass community planning process for particle physics. His work appears in leading journals including Journal of High Energy Physics, Physical Review D, and Physics Letters B, demonstrating consistent productivity and impact in the field.

His research group operates within the Institute for Fundamental Science at the University of Oregon, with additional connections to theoretical physics groups at CERN and EPFL. This international collaboration network enables him to work at the intersection of theoretical developments and experimental frontiers in particle physics.
