Donner Professor of Science
Masahiro Morii

Masahiro Morii is an experimental physicist working on studies of elementary particles and their interactions. He is currently involved in the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. The experiment uses high-energy proton-proton collisions to measure the properties of the elementary particles, including the Higgs boson and the top quark, and to search for signs of new physics beyond the Standard Model.

Prof. Morii and his team of postdocs and students have searched for supersymmetry, for dark matter, and for rare processes involving top quarks. They are also involved in the construction of the new tracking device, called ITk, that will replace the inner part of the ATLAS detector as part of its upgrade for the high-luminosity LHC.
