Researcher
Hans Van Haevermaet
- Research Expertise:As experimental particle physicist I have 10 years of experience in data analysis on particle collisions recorded by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC accelerator. My main objective was to understand the structure and dynamics of the proton in a precise way, by conducting novel measurements. In particular I performed research on Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) in the forward and small-x phase space. Currently my research is focused on gravitational wave instrumentation where I will contribute to the development of ETPathfinder, a prototype interferometer for the future Einstein Telescope observatory.
