Image: an overview of some constraints on (some!) of the models featuring new particles which are searched for in ATLAS. Today I started my new role in ATLAS as the convener of the Exotic physics working group. As I’ve mentioned in previous posts, this is a role which means that, along with my co-convener DrContinue reading “Starting as ATLAS Exotics Convener”

Long lived particles and their friends: a new step in the search programme
An ATLAS paper I’ve been working on for about 2-3 years hit the arXiv today: https://arxiv.org/abs/2407.09168Just in time for the big ICHEP conference (the biggest conference in particle physics) which takes place in Prague from Wednesday this week! It is a follow-up to my previous search for pairs of exotic long-lived particles (see Searching forContinue reading “Long lived particles and their friends: a new step in the search programme”
Exotics Convener
Some big news in this post! I can now officially say that I’ve been appointed to be the ATLAS experiment’s next Exotics Convener, starting October 1st 2024. To the un-initiated, this may sound like I am going to become some kind of unusual fruit collector. But in reality, this is an important scientific leadership roleContinue reading “Exotics Convener”
A measurement five years in the making
Towards the middle of my first post-doc, back in 2019, my then boss Jon asked me if I would join an exciting and ambitious measurement project which just needed a little extra push to be finished. The UCL PhD student working on it was graduating, and it seemed just a small injection of person powerContinue reading “A measurement five years in the making”
