American particle physicist
Greg Landsberg is an American particle physicist . He is the Thomas J. Watson Sr. Professor of Physics at Brown University .
Biography
Landsberg obtained his doctor of philosophy from SUNY Stony Brook in 1994, supervized by Paul Grannis . He worked at the DØ experiment at Fermilab during and after his PhD. He entered Brown University 's faculty in 1998.[ 1]
In 2001 Landsberg became a Alfred P. Sloan Fellow .[ 2] In the same year, he wrote with Savas Dimopoulos about the generation of minuscule blackholes in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).[ 3] [ 4] [ 5] Landsberg was also the Deputy Physics Coordinator of DØ, before he led the Brown team to join the CMS Experiment at CERN in 2004.[ 1]
In 2009 he was elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society , see list and announcement by his department.[ 6]
In 2010, Landsberg proposed a theory in which the universe's dimensions grow as it expands.[ 7] He also participated in the search of the Higgs Boson .[ 8] From 2012 to 2013, he was the Physics Coordinator at the CMS Experiment .[ 1] He became the Thomas J. Watson Sr. Professor of Physics at Brown University in 2014.[ 9] [ 10]
