Research and Expertise

Research Interests

Pablo Yepes researches in the area of heavy ion interactions. This includes the study of matter under extremes conditions of temperature and density, which may provide important clues for the understanding of the early universe. In addition these collisions have opened new possibilities in photon-photon collisions at large energies (photons are quanta of light). He has concentrated his efforts in the STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider at the Brookhaven National Laboratory. He played a major role in the design and development of fast analysis tools for the experiment. He has also made essential contributions in the analysis of Ultra-Peripheral Collisions. In addition he is part of a collaboration proposing the use of the next Large Hadronic Collider at CERN (European Laboratory for Particle Physics) in Geneva to study ion-ion interactions.
