Research summary
AI-generated

E. S. Smith works in experimental particle physics, focusing on searches for dark matter (a mysterious form of matter that does not emit light) using beam-dump experiments at accelerator facilities such as Jefferson Lab. The research also involves developing and testing particle detectors, including light-sensitive crystals and silicon photomultipliers, as well as studies of particle production and collisions.
