معرفی
Christopher Palmer is an Assistant Professor at the University of Maryland, specializing in High Energy Physics. He holds a BS in Astronomy and Mathematics from the University of Southern California (2007) and a PhD from the University of California - San Diego (2014). His research focuses on understanding the Higgs boson through analyses of two-photon signatures and contributions to precision luminosity measurements, Higgs decay studies, and High Luminosity LHC upgrades. He has worked at CERN and Princeton University as a postdoctoral researcher.
- Education: BS (USC 2007), PhD (UCSD 2014)
His research interests center on fundamental particle physics questions, particularly leveraging experimental data from CERN's Large Hadron Collider. He collaborates on detector upgrades for future particle physics experiments such as the FCC. Teaching includes courses like Physics 171 (Mechanics/Relativity) and Physics 441 (Subatomic Physics).
Notable contributions include work on the Higgs boson discovery during LHC Run 1 and participation in FCC initiatives. He currently investigates multi-Higgs boson signatures to uncover new physics beyond the Standard Model.
