Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMaurik Holtrop is a physics professor and experimentalist with over three decades of hands-on experience probing nuclei, dark matter questions, and fundamental particle interactions through experiment design, data analysis, and GEANT-based Monte Carlo simulation. Based at the University of New Hampshire with long-term user ties to Jefferson Lab, he blends academic teaching with production-grade software and data-collection systems for large detector experiments. His work spans physics, machine learning, and software architecture for analysis pipelines, and he routinely moves between code, simulation, and the lab floor. Notably, he combines deep experimental know-how (CLAS-era detector analysis) with a knack for translating complex physics into reproducible analysis software and pedagogy.
