Kai Wei

This name appears to aggregate work from multiple distinct research groups, most prominently one focused on precision atomic physics and quantum sensing, including SERF (spin-exchange relaxation-free) comagnetometers, atomic spin sensors, and searches for new physics such as dark matter, axions, and fifth-force interactions using ultra-sensitive magnetometry. Other publications under this name span unrelated areas like materials science (hydrogels, nanofibers, photocatalysis), gravitational wave data analysis, and engineering topics (thermal error prediction, power distribution networks), suggesting the bibliographic record may combine several different researchers sharing the same name. A prospective student should verify which specific line of work and institutional affiliation is relevant before reaching out.

Publication output grew substantially from 2017 to a peak around 2022-2023, and has remained high (30-40 papers/year) through 2025, indicating a strong and possibly still-growing publication pace, though the diversity of topics suggests this may reflect combined output from multiple same-named authors.
