Regular biography
Elliot Lipeles is a Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Pennsylvania. His research focuses on experimental particle physics and collider physics, with an emphasis on the Higgs boson and dark matter. He is a member of the ATLAS collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider and played a key role in the 2012 discovery of the Higgs boson. His work includes searches for new particles and phenomena beyond the Standard Model, particularly in the context of supersymmetry and invisible Higgs boson decays. He teaches courses in principles of physics and modern physics laboratory. His research interests include the Higgs mass puzzle and the potential role of the Higgs boson as a portal to dark matter.
