Agni Bethani (CP3)


Agni Bethani profile pic
My research interests revolve around Higgs physics and searches for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). I am an expert in searches for Higgs pair production at the LHC. I was a member of CMS during my PhD, and after 5 years in ATLAS I returned to CMS in July 2019. While in ATLAS I lead the HH->bbττ analysis. Currently, in CMS, I am working on the HH->bbWW channel. As we gather more data at the LHC and improve our analysis techniques, the sensitivity to the Higgs pair production increases. The HH decays studies can constrain several SM parameters, with the Higgs self-coupling being the most important one. Therefore I am interested in the Effective Field Theory interpretation of the HH results. In parallel, I am contributing the flavour-tagging group in CMS. I am also interested in science communication, outreach and the representation of women and minorities in science.

Stochastic gravitational wave background (GWB) is an anticipated signal of astrophysical and cosmological origin. A large population of faint, unresolvable, and independent sources of gravitational waves (GWs) since the beginning of stellar activity may form an astrophysical GWB. While GWs from the early universe events like Inflation and first-order phase transition are buried under an astrophysical background. Detection of GWB will provide a unique probe to study the large-scale structure of the universe, GW sources, and propagation. The energy flux of GWB is expected to have tiny fluctuations across the sky. Several reasons include inhomogeneities in matter distribution and our peculiar motion in the cosmic rest frame. My research interest lies in characterizing the anisotropy of GWB and inferring source properties. I aim to develop statistical methods to find the signature of anisotropy utilizing data from current and upcoming terrestrial detectors.

I work on searches for physics beyond the standard model. Given that a large class of models describing physics beyond the standard model predicts the appearance of topological defects, I study the consequences of these phenomena in the large scale structure (LSS) of the universe. My work involves performing numerical computations that simulate these effects to find optimal statistics that extract the signal from the topological defects. The primary goal of this study is to favor or discard classes of models that extend the standard model. I used various numerical computational tools, such as N-Body simulation (CUBEP3M, Gadget, PKDGRAV3, and PICOLA) and data analysis (Curvelab, S2let).

My research has spanned several areas of mathematics, however always centered around the study of the representations of the given object. Nowadays my focus is on finite dimensional representations of quantum affine algebras via geometric realisations. Hereby the angle is additive and monoidal categorification of an underlying cluster algebras. Earlier my research focused on integral representation theory of finite groups, via connections to arithmetic groups. The latter can be thought as the integer points of semisimple linear algebraic groups of which the group of units of the integral group ring is an example of. The overarching quesiton here is which properties of the finite group can reconstructed out of the geometric group theoretical properties of the simple factors of the overlying algebraic group.

My primary research focuses on the searches for stochastic gravitational-wave background -SGWB (origin of such a background could be cosmological or astrophysical) using the data from LIGO, Virgo, and KAGRA (LVK) detectors. We have placed the most stringent bounds on the energy density of SGWBs using the latest observational data along with the (first) upper limit maps of the gravitational-wave sky at every frequency bin. We expect that the current efforts will make significant progress in the coming years and result in the first detection of SGWBs. I am also interested in understanding some aspects of the alternative theories of gravity. In the past, I have worked on black hole thermodynamic aspects of these theories in a newly developed framework called Geometrothermodynamics.

The goal of my research is to contribute to the rigorous analysis of elliptic two-dimensional integrable models along their combinatorial line. Over the years, these statistical mechanics models have been shown to exhibit rich analytic and algebraic structures, as well as surprising links to combinatorics. Yet, to this day, many of their aspects remain either conjectural or plainly unexplored. I focus my study on the eight-vertex model and related systems such as the 8VSOS model and the XYZ spin chain, as well as their higher-spin generalisations. One of my central aims is to address conjectures and open questions about the ground state of the XYZ spin chain along its combinatorial line for various boundary conditions. I am also interested in obtaining exact finite-size expressions for some interesting physical quantities. Ultimately, the analysis of their scaling limits for large systems will lead me to establish links with quantum field theory models in the continuum.
