I am professor (part-time) in the ITF, as part of the Quantum Gravity, Strings, and Elementary
Particles program. My main interests are in theoretical particle physics, in particular
in relation to the physics of colliders such as the LHC.
My other positions are at the University of Amsterdam, and as theory group program leader at Nikhef, the Dutch National Institute for Particle Physics.
Perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics, phenomenology of the Standard Model, and beyond.
My curriculum vitae, and publications (from Spires)
In Utrecht I teach, with Prof. Bernard de Wit, a course on Field Theory in Particle Physics. In 2013 the lectures will be held in Nikhef in Amsterdam.
Interested students can contact me about a possible Master's thesis. Recent theses of Utrecht students are:
