About Stephen Levy

 I am a currently a research associate at the University of Chicago working on the CDF experiment at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia, Illinois where we collide protons and anti-protons in order to better understand the fundamental forces of nature. See my current research for more information.

I obtained my PhD in high energy experimental particle physics from the University of California at Santa Barbara in the summer of 2003.  As a graduate student, I worked with Professor Claudio Campagnari on the BaBar experiment at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center in Palo Alto California.  I wrote my thesis on CP violation in the neutral B meson system.  We measured sin2beta (where beta is an angle of the unitary triangle) by measuring the difference in decay time of B0 and B0bar mesons that decay to CP-eigenstates consisting of a ccbar and K0s meson.

I graduated with a BS in physics and math from the University of Richmond in Virginia in 1997 where I was a varsity scholarship tennis player for 4 years.  We won the NCAA Division I Colonial Athletic Association title my sophomore year (1995).  I also worked with Professor Gerard Gilfoyle on a drift chamber prototype for the CLAS collaboration at Jefferson Lab in Newport News, Virginia.

I grew up in Cherry Hill, New Jersey.
