Professor Chapman's research specialty is Experimental High Energy
Physics. In recent years, research results in this field have led to
increased confidence in the Standard Model of weak, electromagnetic, and
strong interactions. Currently, the experimental challenges are split
between further refinements of the parameters of the model and searches
for physics not described by the model.
Michigan is a major US institution in the ATLAS Collaboration at the
LHC for the preparation of major parts of the precision muon detector and
for its electronics instrumentation. Dr. Chapman has assumed
responsibility for the design, construction, and commissioning of the
on-detector muon electronics. Michigan is also providing a key part of
on-detector electronics, a fast readout multiplexer.
