Short biography
David d'Enterria works in experimental high-energy physics (HEP). PhD in Physics from the Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona & Universite de Caen - Basse Normandie (2000), awarded with a "Premi Extraordinari de Doctorat" (UAB). He spent 2 years in France (IN2P3/CNRS) with a Marie-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship at Subatech (Nantes) working on high-energy nuclear physics with the PHENIX (Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider, RHIC) and ALICE (Large Hadron Collider, LHC) experiments. He then moved to NY (Columbia University) as Postdoctoral Research Scientist while continuing his work at RHIC (2002-2005). In 2006, he returned to Europe with a staff research physicist at CERN (Geneva) followed by a short-term MIT visiting scientist position, with the CMS experiment at the LHC. Since January 2009 he is senior member of the HEP group at the UB. Research interests
David d'Enterria works in experimental high-energy particle and nuclear physics. He studies the production of subatomic particles in proton-proton, proton-nucleus, nucleus-nucleus and photon-induced collisions at collider energies in order to learn about the forces and particles of the universe. His main interests and expertise are in the physics of the strong interaction that binds quarks and gluons into stable particles like the proton, as well as in searches of the Higgs boson in various production channels.
