معرفی
Andreas Knecht is a Researcher at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) in Switzerland, affiliated with the Laboratory for Particle Physics and the Muon Physics group. His work focuses on muon-induced spectroscopy, nuclear structure analysis, and beamline engineering.
His research spans muonic x-ray spectroscopy, charge radius measurements, and high-intensity muon beam optimization. Key methodologies include laser spectroscopy, target fabrication, and non-destructive elemental analysis. He contributes to infrastructure projects like HIMB (High-Intensity Muon Beams) and IMPACT upgrades.
Recent publications highlight advancements in two-dimensional muon beam compression, superconducting magnet design, and precision detection systems for experiments like Mu3e and MONUMENT. His work intersects experimental particle physics, atomic physics, and applied material science.
At PSI, he collaborates on non-destructive testing applications for cultural heritage (e.g., late antique fibula analysis) and energy storage diagnostics via Muon-Induced X-ray Emission (MIXE). His technical expertise includes molecular plating, SiPM cryogenics, and beam monitoring detectors.
