Join SMU professor and Yale graduate Dr. Stephen Sekula as he discusses his research on the cosmos.

Professor Stephen Sekula was among the SMU physicists at CERN in December 2011 who found hints of long sought after Higgs boson — dubbed the fundamental “God” particle.

Sekula conducts research at the energy frontier (the ATLAS Experiment). He co-convened the ATLAS Higgs Subgroup 6: Beyond-the-Standard Model Higgs Physics from 2012-2013. He is involved in the search for additional Higgs bosons. He also is an authority on high-performance computing (big data).
