Physics analysis with the ATLAS experiment at the LHC (CERN)Collaboration with: NIKHEF, The University of Michigan, University of Wuppertal, HarvardDirect tests of lepton universalitySearch for new physics beyond the standard model in dilepton+X final states (heavy resonances, contact interactions, clockwork-like signals, lepton flavour violation)Upgrade of the ATLAS muon spectrometerCollaboration with: Multiple institutions (mostly from Canada, Chile, Russia, China and the USA)Construction and integration of the sTGC detectors in the New Small Wheel of ATLASLUXE experiment at DESYCollaboration with: DESY, Albert-Ludwig Universitaet Freiburg, Max-Planck Institute of Structure and Matter, Helmholtz-Zentrum Jena, Friedrich-Schiller Universitaet Jena, Queens University Belfast, University College London, University of Plymouth, Tel Aviv University, TechnionUnparalleled tests of strong-field QED in collisions between high-energy electron/photon beam and high-intensity laser pulses. The Schwinger limit is expected to be reached (at the collision centre of mass frame) for the first time in a clean environment.Development of solid-state detectors for tracking and calorimetryDesign, simulation and analysis of the entire experimental setupProbing novel beyond the standard model physics which may be enhanced in the presence of strong-fields, e.g. production of axion-like particles which are associated with solution to many of the outstanding problems in particle physics, and which can be furthermore linked to the origin of dark matter.Development of new solid-state detectors for HEPCollaboration with: Soreq Nuclear Research Center, Carleton University, RD50 collaboration at CERN (multiple institutions)GaN-based sensors
