Associate Professor
Ethan Brown's research is in particle astrophysics, using techniques from particle physics to answer questions related to astronomy. The research uses liquid xenon and novel detectors to probe rare physics properties in an attempt to identify the content and properties of the fundamental constituents of matter, and develops new detection met. As a member of the nEXO neutrinoless double beta decay experiment, this research probes theories beyond the standard model of particle physics, and attempts to detect and characterize the nature of the neutrino.
