I am a theorist with a broad interest in astroparticle physics and cosmology, including neutrinos, gamma rays, dark matter, and gravitational waves. Specifically, I am interested in the origin and detection of TeV--PeV neutrinos and the MeV diffuse supernova neutrino background.

Citation: "For the development of techniques expanding the low-energy reach of new particle detector technologies, with applications in neutrino physics, dark matter searches, and the study of charged-lepton flavor violating modes of muon decay."
 

Instruments would help us understand beginning, history, makeup of the universe

In an interview with APS News, Kolb discusses the Big Bang, parallel universes, and the need for public outreach.

Congratulations to Jisheng Zhang for successfully defending his Ph.D. dissertation on “Thermal and Magnetic History of Rocky Exoplanets”.

Andrew Hearin received his Ph.D. in physics in 2012 from the University of Pittsburgh. He worked as a postdoc in the Theoretical Astrophysics group at Fermi National Lab, and then as postdoctoral fellow at Yale before joining Argonne in 2017.

Ph.D., Physics, Ohio State University, 2021
