D. Kirpichnikov works in theoretical and experimental particle physics, focusing on searching for dark matter and hidden-sector particles such as dark photons, axion-like particles, and other proposed 'mediator' particles that could connect ordinary matter to dark matter. Much of this work involves calculating predicted signals for and interpreting results from fixed-target and beam-dump experiments, notably the NA64 experiment at CERN. This research aims to help design and analyze experiments that could detect faint traces of dark matter interacting with known particles.
