Klaus Dehmelt

Klaus Dehmelt is a Research Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Stony Brook University. He has been affiliated with the University’s RHI group since 2011 and contributes to high-energy physics experiments and detector technology development. His career includes roles at DESY, CERN, and the PHENIX collaboration at Brookhaven National Laboratory, where he served as Run Coordinator in 2014.

Dehmelt’s research focuses on unraveling the structure of nuclear matter and quantum chromodynamics (QCD) through advanced detector systems. He has collaborated on major projects such as the PHENIX, sPHENIX, and MOLLER experiments, contributing to understanding subatomic particle interactions at ultra-small scales.

His technical expertise spans gas detector development, experimental particle physics, and analysis of high-energy collision data. Key collaborations include the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), and the Jefferson Lab (JLab) through initiatives like the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC).
