Describe your team here.
Michael Shaevitz is an experimental particle physicist. His current activities center around programs that use neutrinos as probes and probe the properties of neutrinos: such as MicroBooNE, SBND - Near Detector for the Short-Baseline Neutrino (SBN) Program at Fermilab, CCM - Coherent Captain Mills Exp. at Los Alamos Nat. Lab, and the future experiment IceCube-Gen2 and DUNE.
John Parsons is a professor at Columbia University. His primary research interests lie in experimental high energy physics. His current efforts is on the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland. He also worked on the DZero experiment at the Tevatron proton-proton collider at Fermilab near Chicago.
Gustaaf Brooijmans is currently primarily involved in ATLAS, one of the experiments at CERN's LHC (in Geneva, Switzerland). His focus is on the discovery of new physics, primarily using events in which top quarks are produced in the decays of new particles. He is also very interested in the violation of global symmetries. He is trying to bring together a collaboration to search for baryon number violation through observation of neutron-anti-neutron oscillations, and he is very interested in the mu2e experiment at Fermilab.
Georgia Karagiorgi is an Assistant Professor of Physics at Columbia. Her research includes searches for new physics in the neutrino sector and neutrino phenomenology. She is involved in physics analyses with the MicroBooNE experiment, and in the design and construction of SBND and the future DUNE experiment.
