R. Polifka

R. Polifka works in experimental particle physics, studying high-energy collisions between electrons and protons (deep-inelastic scattering) and related large-scale collider experiments such as those at HERA and the Large Hadron Collider. This research involves measuring particle behavior and interactions to test and refine theoretical models of matter, often using large detector systems and advanced data-analysis techniques including machine learning. Prospective students would likely be involved in large international collaborations analyzing experimental data from particle colliders.

Publication output has fluctuated over the last decade with notable peaks in 2021 and especially 2023, but has declined sharply in 2025-2026, suggesting variable but generally active output tied to large collaborative projects.
