Professor of Physics |
Craig Blocker is a member of the High Energy Group at Brandeis. The group collaborates on the Collider Detector at Fermilab?an experiment to study high energy proton-antiproton collisions. The Brandeis Group is interested in properties of intermediate vector bosons, bottom meson mixing, interactions of quarks and gluons, and searches for new phenomena.
