Semester Project - Large Interferometer For Exoplanets at AvenirX Labs
Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland
Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAdvait Dhingra is a physics student at ETH Zurich with six years of experience contributing to experimental and computational projects in particle and astronomical instrumentation. He is currently simulating a nulling interferometer for exoplanet detection with LIFE Space Mission while also working as a venture scout at AvenirX Labs, blending technical modelling skills with an entrepreneurial mindset. His open-source contributions to CERN's ROOT project include core bug fixes and TString enhancements, reflecting solid back-end development and attention to memory and error-handling details in a widely used scientific framework. Past internships at CERN and the University of Bonn span ATLAS experimental analyses and theoretical work on multi-loop Feynman integrals, the latter earning a prize in mathematics. An avid reader of popular science authors, he pairs deep theoretical interests with practical software and data-analysis experience across research and outreach.

Contributions summary:Advait primarily contributed to the core base functionalities, including string manipulation and error handling, within the ROOT project, a large-scale data analysis and visualization framework. Their work involved fixing bugs related to string operations, particularly handling negative lengths and memory management. Additionally, the user corrected error messages and added a warning for constructors when the input string is shorter than the requested size. The user also implemented code formatting and made changes in testing files related to TString class.
