Current Research Interests

Work in particle physics attempts to analyze new experimental results and guide future experiments. The main direction is in understanding CP violation; i.e the difference between particles and antiparticles and why all the matter we know consists of particles and not antiparticles  when particles and antiparticles should have been created equally in the big bang.  The basic quantum theory underlying new neutrino experiments has been clarified. Previous work on the theoretical guidelines for the use of x-rays to study properties of materials has been updated in view of the new synchrotron radiation light sources and is in use by experimenters today.
