I am a DPhil student in Particle Physics working on two neutrino oscillation experiments called DUNE and T2K. I am investigating neutrino-nucleus cross section uncertainties related to a particular interaction channel called 2p-2h interactions. These interactions occur when a neutrino scatters off a bound state of two nucleons inside the nucleus, given rise to two particles (nucleons) being ejected from the nucleus with two holes left inside it (2 particle - 2 hole interaction).
More generally, I have experience in neutrino event generator predictions and comparisons between the available simulation tools. One goal is to enable reliable predictions of neutrino-nucleus scattering data and draw conclusions on the underlying physics from comparing generator predictions with experimental data.
I am also interested in Beyond-The-Standard-Model (BSM) Physics in order to reveal the many unknowns that are yet to be discovered and that are yet not included in the current description of particles and their interactions (The Standard Model). In particular, I am looking at quantum decoherence in neutrino oscillations and whether this could be measured in modern neutrino experiments. There are many ideas for what causes quantum decoherence. One prominent example is motivated by quantum gravity, in which the neutrino experiences perturbations in its path through a stochastic fluctuating spacetime.
