معرفی
Kaixuan Ni is a Professor of Physics at the University of California San Diego (UCSD), affiliated with the Vc-academic Affairs division. His research focuses on developing advanced particle detection technologies, particularly using noble liquids like xenon, to explore dark matter, neutrinos, and fundamental physics phenomena. He leads multiple high-impact projects such as XENON1T/nT, DARWIN, NUXE, and LBECA, collaborating with global institutions.
Education includes a PhD in Physics from Columbia University (2006) and a BS in Physics from Peking University (2000). Awards include the American Physical Society Fellow (2020), DARPA Young Faculty Award (2020), and DARPA Director’s Award (2022).
His work spans detector design, background reduction, and data analysis for experiments like XENONnT and DARWIN, aiming to probe WIMPs, axions, and solar/neutrino interactions. Recent articles address light dark matter detection, radon removal techniques, and coherent neutrino scattering observations.
Ni’s research also includes the SanDiX facility for xenon detector testing, training students in experimental physics. His contributions bridge fundamental physics with applied technologies for neutrino monitoring and low-energy detection.
