معرفی
Brian Rebel is a Professor and Associate Chair for Alumni Relations & Board of Visitors in the Department of Physics at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. His research focuses on experimental high-energy physics, particularly long-baseline neutrino oscillations. He is a key member of the DUNE (Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment) collaboration and the NOvA experiment, contributing to detector design, data analysis, and neutrino interaction studies.
Rebel's work emphasizes advancing neutrino physics through cutting-edge detector technologies like liquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPCs). He leads efforts in developing algorithms for particle track reconstruction, energy measurement, and machine learning applications in neutrino experiments. His group also explores cross-section measurements, supernova neutrino detection, and searches for beyond-Standard-Model physics.
Recent research trends include optimizing DUNE's Phase II detectors, improving neutrino oscillation parameter measurements using Bayesian methods, and investigating novel detector materials. Rebel actively contributes to international collaborations, including Fermilab accelerator upgrades and European partnerships. His work bridges foundational particle physics with technological innovation, positioning UW-Madison as a leader in neutrino science.
