Most Significant Contributions

As member of the EXO-200 management team, I have been contributing to the operation of the EXO-200 detector. The detector is located in a salt mine which is a hard environment on any piece of equipment. A significant fraction of repairs and operational supplies has been funded through NSERC funding, which I manage. In my function as run coordinator, I still take shifts with the EXO-200 detector where I am responsible for the day-to-day operation. I am McGill’s representative on the EXO-200 collaboration board and provide input to the scientific exploitation of EXO-200. I represent McGill at the nEXO collaboration board and am responsible as L2 manager for the outer detector of nEXO, including water tank and muon veto. Most significant publications [of all times] 1. Search for Majorana neutrinos with the first two years of EXO-200 data, Nature, 510, 229 (2014) 2. Searches for Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay with the Upgraded EXO-200 Detector, Physical Review

Letters 120, 072701 (2018) 3. First Penning-Trap Mass Measurement Of The Exotic Halo Nucleus 11Li, Physical Review Letters 101,

Spokesperson of Collaboration: I am the deputy spokesperson of the EXO-Canada group, which is the Canadian contingent of the EXO-200 and nEXO collaborations. In this role, I have compiled the by-laws and organized meetings to discuss and steer the research direction towards realizing nEXO in Canada at SNOLAB. Leader of Research: I have developed a device to extract ions from up to 10 bar of Xe gas into vacuum. This is a critical step in the Ba-tagging approach, where the decay daughter Ba-136 is extracted from the nEXO and identified. I am also involved in the TITAN collaboration, where my interest focuses on spectroscopic in-trap decay measurements of rare decays.

Most Significant Contributions Joining PICO in 2014 and moving to SNOLAB in 2016 have allowed me to make a significant contribution to this world-leading experiment. I am currently the chair of the scientific board and lead on installation and assembly for PICO 40L and PICO 500. I am also responsible for the muon veto system, used to identify external background events, and the filtration system. This is of particular importance due to the existence of particulate-induced backgrounds in previous runs.

Most significant publications [of all times] 1. First results from the LUX dark matter experiment at the Sanford Underground Research facility, Phys.

Rev. Lett. 112 (2014) 091303 [1627 citations] 2. Observation of High-Energy Astrophysical Neutrinos in Three Years of IceCube Data, Phys. Rev. Lett.

113 (2014), 101101 [814 citations] 3. Evidence for High-Energy Extraterrestrial Neutrinos at the IceCube Detector, Science 342 (2013),

(2013) no.13 131302 [328 citations]

My roles as simulation coordinator and analysis convener for the PINGU collaboration has put me in charge of the optimization of the future detector. Using simulations and analysis studies of the most important physics results (the neutrino mass hierarchy, the octant measurement, dark matter detection, etc.) I have tuned the layout to maximize the impact given the financial constraints. This work led to me being chosen as the PINGU representative at many major conferences and the co-author of the letter of intent.

My time with the SNO+ collaboration in the UK had me leading the design, construction, and commissioning of the new fibre-optic based optical calibration system. This system not only serves to calibrate the response of the PMTs, a vital task given the number of different responses) but also to monitor the quality of light transmission. As the amount of the double beta decay isotope is increased, the operation of the detector becomes increasingly dependent on this measurement to ensure proper function.

With the LUX collaboration I designed, built, and tested the first high-efficiency two-phase heat exchanger used in a xenon experiment. The requirements of >95% efficiency and completely clean operation meant that this was a challenging task, but one that was met. Without this vital component, the LUX detector would be unable to operate in an underground setting since the consumption of liquid nitrogen used to cool the chamber would be prohibitively high.

Project Leader (grant holder, 2006-2018) for the CFI/BCKDF project to rebuild the M20 surface muon beam line. Agitator and coapplicant (with Jeff Sonier, SFU Physics) for a the CFI project to replace M9B with M9H, a new high momentum muon line. Principal Investigator (2009-2017) of the NSERC/NRC/AECL Gen IV Energy Technologies project on “Reaction Kinetics in Supercritical Water as Probed with Muonium” (coapplicant K. Ghandi, Mount Allison University). Full Professor at Simon Fraser University with half teaching load, resulting in many opportunities to expose undergraduates as well as research students to TRIUMF science. Major administrative and service contributions, including 27 years on Senate and 6 years on the Board of Governors, again leading to many opportunities to advocate for TRIUMF.

Most Significant Contributions I had a leading role in the search and discovery of the Higgs boson by the ATLAS experiment. My focus was on the Higgs boson decay to a pair of W bosons (WW), one of the 3 ATLAS discovery channels. The leadership role included: editor for the 2011 search paper in this channel, editor of the ATLAS Higgs discovery paper for which I wrote the WW section, convener of the WW group which involved coordinating the work of about 120 physicists. During my tenure as WW convener, the analysis team performed measurements of the properties of the discovered boson in that channel which led to two key papers that were published in 2013. Those papers established that the discovered particle was indeed a Higgs boson. I was then appointed convener of the Higgs group of the ATLAS collaboration for a period of two years.

Most significant publications [of all times] 1. Observation of a new particle in the search for the Standard Model Higgs boson with the ATLAS

detector at the LHC, Physics Letters B 716 (2012) 1–29. 2. Measurements of Higgs boson production and couplings in diboson final states with the ATLAS detector

at the LHC. Physics Letters B 726 (2013) 88–119. 3. Evidence for the spin-0 nature of the Higgs boson using ATLAS data. Physics Letters B 726 (2013) 120. 4. Search for the Standard Model Higgs boson in the H → W W(*) → lνlν decay mode with 4.7fb-1 of

ATLAS data at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV. Physics Letters B 716 (2012) 62–81. 5. Search for New Particles in Two-Jet Final States in 7 TeV Proton-Proton Collisions with the ATLAS

Detector at the LHC. PRL 105, 161801 (2010). Physics Coordinator of the ATLAS Experiment: I was appointed as “Physics Coordinator” of the ATLAS experiment in 2017 for a period of two years, serving as deputy coordinator for the first year of the mandate. The physics coordinator oversees the physics program of the collaboration of 3000 physicists and manages its 8 physics analysis groups and 6 physics performance groups Convener of the Higgs Physics Group of the ATLAS Experiment: I was the convener of the Higgs physics group of the ATLAS collaboration from October of 2013 to October of 2015. This involved the coordination of over 600 physicists working on this topic within the collaboration. I oversaw the completion of the final Run 1 analyses (Run 1 was the 2010-2012 data taking period at the LHC). During his mandate, the group published 44 papers that characterized the Higgs boson. Coordination of the Higgs WW analysis of the ATLAS experiment: From October 2012 to October 2013, I was convener of the Higgs physics group dedicated to all measurements involving the decay of the Higgs boson to WW. This was a group of over 120 physicists. During the Higgs discovery, I was appointed as an editor of the paper claiming the discovery of the Higgs boson by the ATLAS experiment, a paper that now has over 8000 citations. The Higgs discovery by ATLAS relied on three decay modes of the particle, namely two photons (gg), ZZ, and WW, and I wrote the part of the paper on the WW analysis. Convener of the Exotics Group of the ATLAS Experiment: I served a two-year term as convener of the Exotics Physics group of the ATLAS experiment when the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) started. The Exotics group focuses on searching for new phenomena beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. This leadership role happened during the period when the LHC first started and when the experiment produced its first highly anticipated results.
