Elementary Particle Theory

A research group of the Department of Physics.

Phenomenology is the study of particle physics at energy scales probed by present-day or near future experiments. Our research spans the theory of the entire breadth of the experimental particle physics program and addresses fundamental issues such as the Origin of Mass and the Higgs Boson as well as the Matter-Antimatter Asymmetry of the Universe.

Research Areas

• Electroweak interactions
• Hadron spectroscopy
• Higgs Boson studies
• Particle physics database
• Particle physics phenomenology
• Parton distributions
• Quantum chromodynamics
• Relation to early universe
• Supersymmetry and duality
