Dark Matter and What Goes Bump in the Night
Dr. Joseph Bramante is an Assistant Professor at Queen's in the Department of Physics, Engineering Physics聽and Astronomy. He is also a Visiting Fellow at the Perimeter Institute and a member of the new,聽Arthur B. McDonald Canadian Astroparticle Physics Research Institute at Queen鈥檚. His research focuses on constructing theories that describe fundamental physics and finding new ways for humans to test those theories.
He held post-doctoral fellowships at the Perimeter Institute and the University of Notre Dame, and received his doctorate from the University of Hawaii for work on 鈥淒ark Particles and Primordial Perturbations.鈥
In this episode, he discusses the McDonald Institute鈥檚 network of researchers and students whose central aim is to make new discoveries and advance the frontier of knowledge related to astroparticle physics. Dr. Bramante also explains how his research on fundamental theories of dark matter has progressed through experimentation at SNOLAB.
