معرفی
Ryan B. Patterson is a Professor of Physics at the California Institute of Technology working within the Division of Physics, Mathematics and Astronomy (PMA). He conducts research in neutrino physics and particle physics with a focus on understanding fundamental questions about the neutrino sector.
Dr. Patterson received his B.S. from Caltech in 2000 and his Ph.D. from Princeton University in 2007. He joined Caltech as an Assistant Professor in 2010 and was promoted to Professor in 2017. His research addresses questions of weak mixing, neutrino masses, CP violation, and physics beyond the Standard Model.
His work centers on major neutrino experiments including the currently operating NOvA experiment and development of the next-generation DUNE experiment. Previous involvement includes the MINOS and MiniBooNE experiments. His research group investigates neutrino oscillations, mass hierarchy, and potential CP violation that could explain the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the universe.
Dr. Patterson teaches analytical physics courses including Physics 1b (Winter) and Physics 1c (Spring) at Caltech. His recent publications focus on expanding neutrino oscillation parameter measurements and joint NOvA-T2K data analysis.
