I am from the theoretical particle physics group of the department of physics. I am interested in the new physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics.
My research is to explore new BSM models which can explain the mass of neutrinos and reveal the essence of dark matter simultaneously, and on top of this, we will use these models to explain baryogenesis. With the discovery of the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in 2012, all the fundamental particles in the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics have been verified by experiments. However, there are some physics phenomena that the SM cannot explain, such as the origin of tiny neutrino masses, the nature of dark matter and the matter-antimatter asymmetry in our universe. Therefore, it’s necessary for us to consider new physics beyond the SM (BSM physics). Neutrino is the only electric neutral fermion that has been observed with left-handed (LH) chirality in the SM. If right-handed (RH) neutrinos exist, BSM phenomena can be explained in some new models. If BSM models satisfy the Sakharov conditions, it’s possible for them to explain baryogenesis.
