Eva Halkiadakis

Eva Halkiadakis is a Professor of Physics at Rutgers University, affiliated with the Department of Physics and Astronomy within the School of Arts and Sciences. She is a member of the High Energy Experiment group and contributes to the CMS experiment at CERN. Her research focuses on particle physics, experimental high-energy physics, and supersymmetry studies. She has held significant roles, including co-convener of the Supersymmetry Search group within CMS.

Research Interests:
Eva Halkiadakis’s work centers on high-energy physics experiments, particularly at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). She investigates phenomena such as supersymmetry and particle interactions using data from the CMS detector. Her contributions advance our understanding of fundamental particles and their behavior under extreme conditions.

Awards & Honors:

• Rutgers Board of Trustees Research Fellowship (2014)
• NSF CAREER Award (Year not specified)
• LHC Physics Center Fellowship (2011-12)
• Elected Fellow of the American Physical Society (2014)

Advising & Grants:
Eva advises graduate student Steven Clark, who received a NSF Graduate Research Fellowship. Her grants include funding from the National Science Foundation and the LHC Physics Center. She also contributed to Tai Wai Hu’s Goldwater Scholarship (though no explicit advisor role stated).

Labs/Teams:
She is a core member of the CMS experiment collaboration at CERN and leads the Supersymmetry Search group. Her work integrates with global teams analyzing LHC data to explore new physics beyond the Standard Model.
