Savino Longo

Savino Longo is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Manitoba. His research focuses on experimental subatomic physics with participation in major international collaborations including Belle II, MOLLER, and TUCAN. He leads efforts in dark matter searches, precision Standard Model measurements, and advanced particle detector development.

• Ph.D. in Physics from University of Victoria
• M.Sc. in Physics from University of Victoria
• B.Eng. in Engineering from McMaster University

His work involves:

• Dark matter production studies using antimatter collisions at Belle II (Japan)
• Weak Mixing Angle measurements at Jefferson Lab (USA)
• Ultra-cold neutron detection at TRIUMF (Canada)

Scientific contributions include:

• DESY Fellowship
• Development of novel photon/hadron reconstruction algorithms
• Antineutron physics precision research

Open thesis opportunities exist in detector technology, beam polarimetry, and neutron detection innovations. He advises students at BSc, MSc, and PhD levels through structured research programs in these cutting-edge areas.
