Saptarshi Chaudhuri

Saptarshi Chaudhuri is an assistant professor in the Department of Physics at Princeton University. His research interests include particle physics, cosmology, and astrophysics, with a special emphasis on axions and methods of dark matter detection. He has worked extensively with quantum sensors and superconducting detectors, such as parametric amplifiers, transition-edge sensors, and microwave kinetic inductance detectors. He received his Ph.D. in physics from Stanford University in 2019 and his B.S. in physics from Caltech in 2013. He is a recipient of several awards and honors, including Stanford University’s Paul Kirkpatrick Award and the Dicke Postdoctoral Fellowship from Princeton.

Saptarshi Chaudhuri is a researcher at Princeton University focusing on dark matter and related astrophysical phenomena. His work explores dark sectors, axion dark matter, and hidden-photon dark matter detection using radio and superconducting technologies. He has contributed to the development of broadband parametric amplifiers, traveling wave parametric amplifiers, and microwave SQUID readout systems for future CMB and sub-millimeter surveys. His research also includes the design of experiments for detecting ultralight dark matter and the simulation of superconducting traveling-wave parametric amplifiers. Chaudhuri's studies aim to improve the sensitivity and efficiency of dark matter searches and astrophysical observations.
