Rate My Professor Patrick Huber

Huber's research focuses on neutrino physics, encompassing neutrino oscillations, CP violation in neutrinos, reactor antineutrino spectra, sterile neutrinos, long-baseline experiments, and applications to nuclear security. He contributed significantly to the phenomenology of long-baseline neutrino oscillations and developed the GLoBES software package, now in version 3.0, for simulating neutrino oscillation experiments. Key publications include "On the determination of reactor antineutrino spectra from nuclear reactors," Physical Review C 84, 024617 (2011); "Antineutrino monitoring for the Iranian heavy water reactor," Physical Review Letters 113, 042503 (2014); "Hints for leptonic CP violation or New Physics?", Physical Review Letters 117, 031801 (2016); "Light sterile neutrinos: a white paper," arXiv:1204.5379 (2012); and "New features in the simulation of neutrino oscillation experiments with GLoBES 3.0," Computer Physics Communications 177, 432 (2007). His seminal work has helped shape the U.S. and global experimental neutrino oscillation programs. Awards include the Otto-Hahn Medal of the Max-Planck-Gesellschaft (2003), U.S. Department of Energy Early Career Research Award (2010), Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics (2016), American Physical Society Fellowship (2019), and William E. Hassinger Jr. Senior Faculty Fellowship (2023). He served on the Particle Physics Project Prioritization Panel.
