How to Catch a Ghost: Neutrinos, Dark Matter, and More

Georgia Karagiorgi is a particle physicist and associate professor of physics at Columbia University. She received her Ph.D. in experimental high-energy physics from MIT in 2010. She is interested in searches for new physics phenomena, and her research program includes the development of novel detector technology for the detection and study of neutrinos, low-energy gamma-rays, and indirect signals of dark matter. She is a member on several international scientific collaborations utilizing state-of-the-art cryogenic liquid argon detectors to detect these ghostly signals, including the accelerator-based Short Baseline Near Detector (SBND) and Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) in the U.S., and the future space-based Gamma Ray and AntiMatter Survey (GRAMS). She currently serves as Physics Analysis Coordinator for the Short-Baseline Neutrino (SBN) experimental program in the U.S. and as GRAMS Spokesperson.
