Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolLuiz De Viveiros is an Associate Professor of Physics at Penn State with 12 years of experience leading experimental efforts in dark matter and neutrino physics. He has played central roles on flagship searches including LUX and LZ—helping design, deploy, and operate detectors underground—and now contributes to precision neutrino-mass measurements with Project 8. Skilled in DAQ, trigger systems, simulations and data analysis, he has repeatedly bridged hands-on instrumentation with large-scale collaboration coordination, having served as Analysis Coordinator and Shift Manager on major experiments. His career path spans academia and national labs, from Brown and Clark University training to postdoctoral work at UCSB and leadership at Sanford Underground Lab. Colleagues rely on him for complex experimental commissioning and for translating low-level electronics and software choices into publishable physics results. He is based in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, and brings a rare combination of underground operations experience and precision measurement expertise to next-generation searches for new physics.
