معرفی
Elif Aslı Yetkin is a Professor in the Department of Energy Systems Engineering at Istanbul Bilgi University, where she has held academic appointments since 2015, progressing from Assistant to Associate and then Full Professor. Her research is centered on high-energy physics, with a focus on exotic meson spectroscopy, detector R&D, and complex data analysis, primarily within the framework of the CMS experiment at CERN.
- PhD in Astronomy and Physics, University of Iowa (2011)
- BS in Physics, Boğaziçi University (2004)
Her research interests include High Energy Physics, Exotic Meson Spectroscopy, Detector R&D, Complex Data Analysis, and Nuclear Energy. She actively contributes to the development of advanced calorimeters and studies of B-physics and quark-gluon interactions. Her work bridges theoretical modeling with experimental validation in particle physics.
The recent publications highlight a strong trend in CMS detector development, particularly for the High Granularity Calorimeter (HGCAL) and forward calorimeter upgrades. Her work spans detector simulation, performance evaluation, and exotic particle searches, especially in the realm of quarkonium and B-hadron physics. Keywords across publications include High Energy Physics, Particle Physics, Detector Development, and Calorimetry, with subfields such as muon triggering, missing transverse energy, and radiation-hard materials.
- TUBITAK 2232 Postdoctoral Fellowship Programme
She has been involved in numerous research projects funded by TÜBİTAK, TAEK, and TENMAK, focusing on detector design, core boil separation modeling in nuclear reactors, and SUEP studies. While no formal students are listed, she mentors through internships (ESEN 200, ESEN 300) and project-based courses like Experimental Design in Energy Systems Engineering. She has not been mentioned as leading a specific lab, but her work is deeply embedded in international collaborations such as CMS and CERN-based R&D teams.
