Prof. Gordon Watts (he/him): Season 2 Episode 1
Season 2 Episode 1
I am an experimental particle physicist, and when I'm not doing that I'm trying to teach myself to take pictures and cook. My research is focused on searching for Hidden Sector extensions to the Standard Model, mostly by looking for evidence of long-lived massive particles. I love the opportunity that physics gives me to explore the internal workings of the world around me. I also have really enjoyed working on the computing aspects of the field - bringing more modern tools into our searches for new physics.

Snowmass is a ~decadal study of the state of particle physics in the USA: the challenges it faces, and the direction its R&D should take. It is a wonderfully grass-roots effort organized by the DPF whose goal is to find some consensus amongst the 1000's of US physicists for particle physics' next 10 years.
My Journey as a Physicist is brought to you by PhD student Bryan Stanley (he/him/his) and Prof. Huey-Wen Lin (she/her). Season 2 is edited by Varalee Sakorikar.
Season 2 consists of members of the Particle Physics Community Planning Exercise known as Snowmass.
