Agni Bethani


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.

Deepali Agarwal


Deepali Agarwal profile pic
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.

During my PhD, I have been working on the T2K neutrino experiment, mostly looking for hypothetical heavy neutrinos using T2K near detector, but also participating to the upgrade of T2K near detector. Then, I obtained a 3-year post-doctoral fellowship in INFN Padova (Italy), where I have been focusing on multi-messenger neutrino astronomy, especially the search for neutrinos in time and spatial coincidence with gravitational waves detected by LIGO/Virgo, using the Super-Kamiokande detector. I spend 10 months as secondment in APC Paris (France) to extend this work to ANTARES telescope. Since I am in Louvain, I am mostly focusing on topics related to multi-messenger astronomy in KM3NeT (GW follow-up, real-time astronomy) and in IceCube (low-energy neutrino selection, service tasks related to supernova monitoring and detection).

Yang Ma


Yang Ma profile pic
My main research interest lies in elementary particle physics theory, focusing on high-energy collider physics as well as connections to astro-particle physics and cosmology. While the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics provides a remarkably successful description of elementary matter and forces, it fails to address a number of outstanding conceptual and empirical mysteries, such as the naturalness of electroweak scale, the strong CP problem, the nature of dark matter (DM), and the origin of neutrino masses. Clearly the SM must be extended and become part of a deeper structure that will explain these shortcomings, with new physics beyond the SM expected to emerge at some high energy scale. I aim to test the SM itself and search for possible new physics at high-energy colliders such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and other future collider programs (ILC, CLIC, CEPC/SPPC, FCC-ee/hh, muon colliders, etc.)

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.
