Theoertical Particle Physics

Nick is a Professor at Southampton University and the Director of the Faculty of Physical Science and Engineering Graduate School.

He completed his PhD in collider phenomenology in 1993 at Southampton University. He performed his early research work at Yale and Boston Universities in the US before returning to Southampton in 1999 on a UK government 5 year fellowship.

His work centres on strongly interacting particle systems, including composite Higgs models, and he played a large role in applying string theory to study the strong nuclear force and the mechanism of mass generation. Much of his work centres on the structure of the vacuum so in a sense he works on nothing.
