Russell Neilson

Russell Neilson is Associate Professor in Drexel University's Physics department and member of the Particle Physics Research group. His experimental work focuses on neutrino physics at reactors and developing bubble chambers for dark matter detection.

Research highlights:

• Precision neutrino measurements at Oak Ridge's HFIR reactor (PROSPECT)
• Cryogenic argon bubble chamber development for GeV-scale dark matter (SBC)
• Underground dark matter searches with freon bubble chambers (PICO)

Recent publications demonstrate methodological innovations in particle detection and calibration techniques across multiple collaborations.
