Project title: Revolutionising tracking and b-jet identification to explore new regions and understand the fundamental workings of the Universe
Research Group: High Energy Physics
Supervisor(s): Prof Nikos Konstantinidis
Introduction:
I am a 1st Year PhD student in the CDT working in High Energy Physics. I chose the CDT because of the the unique emphasis on data science and ML and broad range of research themes. I believe it is important to collaborate with students and academics from different research backgrounds and the CDT is a great place to do that.
Project description:
I work on the ATLAS non-resonant Higgs self-coupling measurement, using cutting edge ML techniques to model backgrounds in this important and exciting analysis. The measurement has important implications for how SM particles gain their mass and even the stability of the Higgs field itself!
