Valentina Dutta

Valentina Dutta is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics at Carnegie Mellon University. Her research focuses on the search for new physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics, addressing unresolved phenomena such as dark matter and the Higgs boson's mass. She is involved in the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment at the Large Hadron Collider, where she has worked on searches for Supersymmetry, including partners to the tau lepton and top quark. She is also a member of the Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX) collaboration, aiming to detect dark matter in the sub-GeV mass range. Her work includes contributions to publications in journals such as Physical Review D and JHEP.

Valentina Dutta is an Assistant Professor in Physics at Carnegie Mellon University, specializing in high energy physics. Her research focuses on the analysis of proton-proton collisions at the CERN LHC, with an emphasis on the CMS detector's performance and the study of Higgs boson properties. She has contributed to the measurement of the Higgs boson mass, its couplings, and decay modes, as well as searches for new particles like heavy top-like quarks and charged Higgs bosons. Her work also includes the development and calibration of detector systems for high-energy physics experiments.
