Professor Christos Touramanis is a leading experimental particle physicist at the University of Liverpool's Department of Physics. He has been instrumental in advancing neutrino physics and CP violation studies through major international collaborations including T2K, DUNE, and BABAR. His career spans CERN Fellowships, PPARC Advanced Research Fellowships, and leadership roles in detector development and experiment coordination.
- PhD from CERN (1992)
- Established Liverpool Neutrino Group (2004)
- Spokesperson for CERN NP04 (ProtoDUNE-SP)
- Founding member of DUNE Executive Board
His research focuses on:
- CP and T Violation studies in neutrino and B meson systems
- Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber (TPC) technology
- Neutrino oscillation measurements and detector design
- Applications of particle detectors in medical and security fields
- Planning of international research infrastructure
Research outputs demonstrate expertise in neutrino cross-section measurements, detector optimization, and symmetry violation analysis. Key contributions include:
- ProtoDUNE-SP TPC construction (2018)
- ND280 Analysis Coordinator during T2K startup
- Pioneering work on B meson CP violation (2001)
- Development of unitarity triangle angle α measurement
Scientific awards include:
- CERN Scientific Associateships (2017-18, 2024-25)
- PPARC Advanced Research Fellowship
- Founding chair of FAIR Experiments Cost Scrutiny Group
He has supervised approximately 25 PhD students, with three receiving CERN Fellowships and one securing a Royal Society URF. His administrative roles include Head of Physics Department and chairing CERN's LHC Resources Scrutiny Group (2013-2017). Major grants include STFC funding for DUNE, T2K, and detector R&D projects.
