Biography

An Jung is a professor at Purdue University, specializing in High Energy Physics. His research group focuses on questions relating to the mass stabilization of the Higgs boson, particularly investigating the role of the top quark as a potentially viable solution to fundamental problems in particle physics. The group engages in high precision measurements within the top quark sector to identify contributions from non-standard model sources. With groundbreaking discoveries such as the Higgs boson in 2012 at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), Jung's work aims to refine the Standard Model of particle physics. His team analyzes the correlations in spin for top quark production and explores significant topics in Quantum Computing, including quantum algorithm development and machine learning applications on quantum systems. The group is actively involved in addressing the hierarchy problem of the Standard Model and ensuring the electroweak vacuum stability, making pivotal contributions to the field of particle physics.
