Biography

Heather Logan is a Professor in Theoretical Physics at Carleton University. Her research predominantly focuses on Theoretical Particle Physics, where she investigates properties of the Higgs boson, the possible extensions to the Standard Model, and the implications of additional Higgs particles. Her interests also encompass dark matter collider signatures, ideas for stabilizing the electroweak energy scale against large radiative corrections (i.e., solutions to the hierarchy problem), various Higgs models, supersymmetry, and composite Higgs theories. Logan's work is anchored in the pursuit of understanding the fundamental components of the universe and the interactions that govern them, contributing significantly to advancing the field of particle physics. She actively engages in collaborative research within the Theoretical Particle Physics Group at her institution.
