Kevin Ingles

Kevin Ingles is an Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics at Ohio State University. His research focuses on theoretical and computational studies of high-energy nuclear collisions, particularly involving charm mesons and their molecular structures in expanding hadronic environments. He also develops advanced Bayesian analysis tools for nuclear dynamics modeling, contributing to frameworks like Taweret and BANDFramework. Ingles has explored causality constraints in dissipative magnetohydrodynamics and the role of spin in relativistic plasma systems through his work.

His research interests span particle physics, nuclear physics, and fluid dynamics, with emphasis on understanding hadron gas dynamics, quarkonium physics, and relativistic hydrodynamic simulations. Recent studies include examining shear-stress response functions in massless particle systems and thermal energy calculations of charm-meson molecules in pion gases.

Ingles received a MPS-Ascend Postdoctoral Fellowship in 2023 focusing on Spin Magnetohydrodynamics. His advisory and grant activities include managing the BANDFramework project and advancing computational methods for nuclear dynamics analysis. He is affiliated with the Physics Research Building at Ohio State University's Department of Physics.

Key contributions include developing Python-based Bayesian model mixing tools and investigating contact interactions that produce exotic particle states. His work integrates theoretical plasma physics with computational fluid dynamics to address challenges in modern collider experiments and nuclear collision simulations.
