HEP experiments are operated by thousands of international collaborators and serve as big drivers of frontier science and human knowledge. They provide a fertile ground to train next generation of scientists. While we invest in science, it is equally imperative that we integrate in our scientific mission, opportunities for participation and contribution from underrepresented and marginalized...

If science outreach is about connecting with new audiences, music remains a uniquely accessible form of outreach. However, physics music needn’t be limited to campy parodies. A project for creating music that is accessible at multiple technical levels will be presented. Using a form of 2D wavetable synthesis, a form of electronic music uses stereo audio signals, mapped onto an oscilloscope’s...

Aside from specialized skills, physicists also have quantitative skills useful in a wide variety of contexts. Among these are the abilities to quantify uncertainty and make useful approximations. These skills, if practiced by members of the general public, can help in understanding scientific results, in understanding the progress of science, in evaluating claims from non-scientific sources,...

nEXO is a planned next-generation neutrinoless double beta decay experiment, designed to be built at SNOLAB in Ontario, Canada. Within the international nuclear and astroparticle physics communities, we strive to be a leader and role model in the areas of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) while drawing inspiration from the trailblazers who came before us. In 2020 nEXO founded its...

I created a presentation, Building Inclusive Communities, and workshopped in in my classes over five years. Now, I've conducted a physics education research study to measure the impact on students' sense of belonging, scientific identity, and course performance. I will be sharing these results, as well as EDI resources for teachers, mentors, and students.
