Bio

Hi! My name is Rowan Kelleher and I am currently a 4th year undergraduate at Duke University studying physics. I grew up in Portland, Oregon and have spent most of my time since then in Durham either in class or doing research. I am also planning to graduate with minor degrees in philosophy and computer science as I find both of those disciplines quite interesting. In my free time I try to play a lot spikeball, ping pong, and pickleball. I also enjoy cooking when I have time.

Research

I started my research journey the summer after my first year of undergraduate when I began working with Prof. Vossen through the HEP 101 program. My work has focused on CLAS12 experiments, first with a project investigating the applicability of TMD factorization in phase space, and later with a project trying to improve Lambda identification. Recently I have been working on implementing a design for a iron-scintillator sandwich calorimeter in DD4HEP as well as creating a parameterization for the detector simulation to reduce computation time.
