Theoretical physicist specializing in Beyond Standard Model phenomenology, exploring the frontiers of BSM theories at the LHC and proposed future colliders.
I am Santosh Kumar Rai, a Professor at the Harish-Chandra Research Institute, specializing in Particle Physics Phenomenology. My research primarily focuses on Beyond Standard Model (BSM) physics and its implications for collider studies.
I have explored various supersymmetric theories, including the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) and its extensions like the NMSSM and left-right supersymmetry, all of which present intriguing signatures at experiments.
My work also delves into extended gauge symmetries beyond the Standard Model, with implications for both neutrino physics and collider studies. My primary focus is on analyzing BSM physics at current and proposed future colliders, including the LHC, ILC, CLIC, LHeC, and FCC.
Investigating theories that extend the Standard Model, exploring new particles, forces, and symmetries that could explain unresolved mysteries in particle physics.
Studying Higgs boson couplings, exotic Higgs signatures, and extending Higgs sector beyond minimal scalar-sector models to investigate new physics signals.
Research on neutrino mass models, lepton number violation, and neutrinophilic interactions within the U(1) framework and beyond.
Exploring extra-dimensional models and supersymmetric theories including MSSM, NMSSM, and left-right supersymmetry and their phenomenological signatures.
