Gregory Lane

Gregory Lane is a Professor at the Department of Nuclear Physics & Accelerator Applications, affiliated with the Research School of Physics & Engineering at the Australian National University (ANU). He holds a PhD from ANU (1996) and has conducted postdoctoral research at SUNY Stony Brook and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. His research focuses on exotic nuclei, nuclear structure via gamma-ray spectroscopy, and dark matter detection technologies. Key roles include ARC Research Fellow (2003-2008) and ARC Future Fellow (2011-2014).

Research interests include metastable nuclear states, collective excitations, and detector development for projects like SABRE and CYGνS. Over 120 peer-reviewed articles and active collaborations across international labs highlight his contributions. Current projects involve directional dark matter detection, nuclear astrophysics, and advanced detector arrays.

His work spans experimental nuclear physics, with recent emphasis on exotic nuclei far from stability and applications in low-background experiments. Major facilities include ANU's Heavy Ion Accelerator and collaborations at GSI (Germany) and other international sites.
