معرفی
Professor Flera Rizatdinova is an experimental particle physicist at Oklahoma State University's Department of Physics, College of Arts and Sciences. She has held the rank of Professor since 2016, after progressing through roles as Associate Professor (2010–2016) and Assistant Professor (2005–2010). Her research focuses on ATLAS experiment contributions at the LHC, including searches for physics beyond the Standard Model (e.g., dark matter), precision top quark measurements, and detector development. She also applies machine learning techniques to particle physics analyses.
Education: Ph.D. in Physics from Moscow State University (1994), followed by postdoctoral training at Kansas State University (2000–2005). Prior to OSU, she was a Scientist at the Institute for Nuclear Research in Moscow (1994–1999).
Research Interests:
- Dark Matter and New Physics Searches
- Top Quark Physics and Precision Measurements
- ATLAS Detector Hardware Development
- Machine Learning Applications in High Energy Physics
Recent work emphasizes cloud computing resource optimization for LHC data analysis and detector upgrades like the ITK Pixel system. Over 18 active grants fund projects such as silicon tracking detectors and EIC calorimeter development. Teaching includes advanced quantum mechanics, experimental physics projects, and doctoral dissertation supervision.
Labs/Teams: Lead experimentalist in the OSU ATLAS group, collaborating with international teams on detector R&D and data analysis. Part of a trio of faculty managing a team of postdocs, engineers, and students.
