Patrick Dunne's current research focuses on understanding the physics of the universe, particularly through the study of the differences between matter and antimatter. His work examines the oscillatory behavior of neutrinos, a type of particle that can travel great distances. Undertaking large-scale experiments that involve hundreds of scientists, Dunne aims to create significant volumes of data to address fundamental questions in particle physics. He is involved in the next-generation DUNE experiment in the USA, as well as the Japan-based T2K experiment. Notably, T2K's analysis group has provided strong evidence for matter-antimatter differences, which was highlighted in Nature and gained substantial international media attention. Dunne currently develops analysis techniques and works on joint analyses of data from both T2K and the NOvA experiment to achieve the strongest measurements of matter-antimatter differences in the last decade. He leads a collaboration focused on developing readout electronics for high-pressure gas time projection chambers for the DUNE experiment, and contributes to the sensitivity estimates for neutrino oscillation fitting frameworks.
