معرفی
Vivek Jain is an Associate Professor in the Department of Physics at the University at Albany, SUNY. He has held this position since 2018, following his tenure as Assistant Professor from 2012 to 2017. He earned an MS from the University of Hawaii in 1988 and a Bachelor's degree from the Indian Institute of Technology, New Delhi (1981). His primary research area is Experimental Particle Physics, focusing on neutrino physics through his membership in the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) at Fermilab. He has been actively involved in the ATLAS collaboration at CERN, contributing to detector design, Higgs boson searches, and studies of exotic particles.
His key research interests include neutrino oscillations, collider physics, and detector technology. Notable projects include the DUNE Near Detector design and analyses of ATLAS data from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). He has contributed to searches for new physics beyond the Standard Model, such as long-lived particles and doubly charmed baryons. His work spans over three decades, with contributions to experiments at the Tevatron, LHC, and B-factories like BaBar.
While no specific awards are listed, his sustained involvement in major international collaborations underscores his expertise. His advising and grant activities remain unspecified in the provided text. He is part of the DUNE team, a flagship project aiming to study neutrino properties over long baselines, and has engaged in ATLAS upgrades for future LHC runs.
