Outreach
03/25/2023Anthony Badea, Teresa Du, and Karri show middle school students how to measure the speed of light with chocolate and a microwave at Chicago's Expanding Your Horizons winter conference.
Conference
04/05/2025Karri and collaborators Larry Lee, Nausheen Shah, and Sally Shaw organize the Aspen Winter Conference on The Future of High Energy Physics: A New Generation, A New Vision. Everyone enjoyed a great escape to the mountains to discuss the future of the field!
Paper Published
06/29/2023The ATLAS Run 3 search for long-lived, massive particles in events with displaced vertices and multiple jets is published in JHEP. The search employs dedicated reconstruction techniques that significantly increase the sensitivity to long-lived particles decaying in the ATLAS inner detector. Congratulations to Karri and collaborators!
Welcome
06/01/2023A big welcome to graduate students Matias Mantinan and Teresa Du, post-bacc reasearchers Carissa Kumar and Leo Rosanov, and summer undergraduates Tate Flicker, Noah Virani, Isaac Hirsch, Emily Pan, and Tanvi Rao!
Paper Submitted
05/26/2023The ATLAS Experiment Detector Configuration for Run 3 is out and has been submitted to JINST. This paper describes the small drift tube chambers installed by Karri in 2017. Congratulations to the ATLAS Collaboration!
Outreach
03/25/2023Karri along with collaborators Grace Cummings and Cristina Mantilla Suarez organize a workshop for middle school students on how to measure the speed of light with chocolate at Chicago's Expanding Your Horizons winter conference.
Outreach
01/21/2023Karri presents strategies for science publications, presentations, and posters to high school students participating in the NAACP ACT-SO program for DuPage County. Students will use these tips to present their work in March!
Paper accepted
12/22/2022Optimizing Trigger-Level Track Reconstruction for Sensitivity to Exotic Signatures is accepted to JHEP. Congratulations to Karri and collaborators, Kate Pachal, Tova Holmes, Jess Nelson, Jess Farr, and Chris Guo!
Workshop
12/14/2022Karri co-organizes the Muon Collider Physics and Detector Workshop at Fermilab. The workshop focuses on physics and detector design (including machine-detector interface discussions) and aims to encourage broader participation in Muon Collider physics within the US community.
