Howard Georgi

Howard Georgi is the Mallinckrodt Professor of Physics, Emeritus, in the Department of Physics at Harvard University. His research focuses on theoretical particle physics, with an emphasis on symmetries and quantum field theory. Georgi has made significant contributions to Grand Unified Theories, the QCD quark model, and the development of Heavy Quark Effective Theory. He has also explored the properties of conformal-invariant sectors and introduced the concept of "unparticle physics." Additionally, he studies the strong CP problem, flavor puzzle, and the interpretation of LHC discoveries. Georgi is also committed to increasing the participation of women and minorities in science.

Howard Georgi is a physicist known for his contributions to particle physics, particularly in the areas of unified gauge theories and effective field theories. His research explores the unification of fundamental forces, supersymmetry, and the structure of hadronic interactions. Georgi has published extensively on topics such as electroweak symmetry breaking, composite Higgs models, and the behavior of heavy quarks. His work also includes studies on unparticle physics and the implications of dimensional deconstruction in particle interactions. His research has significantly advanced the understanding of the fundamental forces and the structure of matter in high-energy physics.
