Illuminating the dark sector at particle accelerators | Canada 🇨🇦

Canada Connect: Coffee Talk with an Early Career Researcher

Despite the many successes of the Standard Model of particle physics, it is known to be an imperfect theory. It leaves several phenomena unexplained, including the exact nature of Dark Matter. My research focuses on leveraging two particle accelerator-based experiments, the DarkLight experiment based at TRIUMF in Vancouver, Canada and the ATLAS experiment at CERN, to hunt for new physics that would fill in the gaps in our knowledge of the universe.
