Expertise

Research Interests:

  • My research interests are precision measurements of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix elements aimed for understanding the source of asymmetry between matter and anti-matter in the universe, testing the Standard Model,  making precision measurements that could reveal dark sector particles or other fundamental interactions and discovering New Physics beyond the Standard Model. The Big Bang produced matter and anti-matter in equal numbers. Experiments revealed that for every fundamental particle there exists an anti-particle. However, observations indicate that we live in a universe of matter not anti-matter. The source of undiscovered phenomenon may lie in Dark Matter, Dark Energy, Supersymmetry Particles, or Gravitons.
