Research:

My interests pertain to the physics of the early universe: specifically, what were the fundamental interactions of nature immediately after the Big Bang and how can they be verified through observations and experiments? I have studied the effects of supersymmetry in low-energy precision measurements of beta-decay, muon decay, and pion decay. I am also exploring the role of supersymmetry in electroweak baryogenesis, which tries to explain the observed asymmetry between matter and anti-matter. My particular specialty lies in calculating the dynamics of particles during the electroweak phase transition, and relating the predicted matter-antimatter asymmetry to studies of electric dipole moments of the electron, neutron, and neutral atoms.
