J. Metcalfe works in experimental particle physics and astrophysics, focusing on the design, testing, and characterization of pixel sensors and detectors used to measure high-energy particles and gamma rays. Much of the recent work centers on AstroPix, a specialized silicon sensor being developed for both space-based gamma-ray telescopes and future particle collider experiments such as the Electron-Ion Collider. This research bridges detector hardware development for large physics experiments (like ATLAS at CERN) and instruments for space missions.
