"Chiara Bissolotti is a postdoctoral researcher in Argonne’s High Energy Physics division. She received her Ph.D. in theoretical nuclear physics from the University of Pavia in 2021, focusing on the 3D momentum structure of the proton. During graduate school, she was awarded the Electron-Ion Collider Fellowship from the Jefferson Lab Electron-Ion Collider Theory Center. As a postdoc, she shifted from nuclear physics research to high energy physics. Currently, at Argonne, she delves into physics beyond the Standard Model, which explains how all the known particles interact.

As a Maria Goeppert Mayer Fellow, Bissolotti plans to use and develop artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) methods to perform searches for signatures of Beyond Standard Model (BSM) physics in the massive data sets that are produced by particle accelerator facilities worldwide, with a focus on U.S. facilities such as Jefferson Lab and the Electron-Ion Collider under development at DOE’s Brookhaven National Laboratory.

This project will be trailblazing, adopting an unprecedented, unbiased method in BSM physics analysis by employing AI/ML to process collider data at the event level. This method will eliminate reliance on conventional assumptions that restrict discovery."
