The Directory of Research and Researchers at Brown: Meenakshi Narain

Narain's research interests are in experimental high energy physics and her ultimate goal is to illuminate the character of physics at the TeV energy scale. Meenakshi Narain has been involved with the CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN (Geneva, Switzerland) and the DØ experiment at Fermilab (Batavia, IL). She was instrumental in the discovery of the top quark in 1995, which is the heaviest fundamental particle and heavy as an Osmium atom. She continues her quest at the LHC to find the Higgs Boson and is excited about the vast new energy frontier that may enable us to make discoveries which revolutionize our understanding of the universe.
