Adam Barton

Dr. Adam Barton is a Senior Research Fellow in the Physics Department at Lancaster University, specializing in experimental high-energy physics through his work with the ATLAS detector at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC). His research focuses on Higgs boson properties, top quark dynamics, and searches for new physics phenomena.

• Position: Senior Research Fellow
• Institution: Lancaster University

Barton's research interests span:

• Heavy flavour production and decay mechanisms
• Electroweak interaction studies through W/Z boson analyses
• Jet physics and track reconstruction in high-energy collisions
• Searches for dark matter and magnetic monopoles
• ATLAS detector performance optimization

His recent publications analyze jet-track correlations, Higgs boson decays, and top quark mass measurements using advanced reconstruction techniques. Barton contributes to ATLAS software development and detector commissioning for future LHC runs.

He is based in the Physics Building (B043b, B-Floor) and can be contacted via a.barton1@lancaster.ac.uk.
