Boleslaw Wyslouch

Boleslaw Wyslouch is Professor of Physics and Director of the Laboratory for Nuclear Science and Bates Research and Engineering Center at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He studies extremely hot and dense states of nuclear matter using very energetic collisions of heavy ions. He is one of the founders and leaders of the heavy ion program in the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland. He previously conducted multiple high energy and nuclear physics experiments at CERN and at Brookhaven National Laboratory RHIC facility. Wyslouch is interested in the computational aspects of nuclear and high energy experiments as well as the development of trigger algorithms for these experiments. He holds a Ph.D. in Physics from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and is a Fellow of the American Physical Society.
