Bipul Bhuyan is a Professor in the Department of Physics at the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati. Prior to joining IIT Guwahati, Prof. Bhuyan worked on the BaBar experiment at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) as a Post-Doctoral Fellow. His Ph.D. thesis was on the Rare Kaon Decay experiment at AGS in Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), Upton, New York. For his Ph.D. thesis work, Prof. Bhuyan received the "RHIC & AGS Thesis Competition Honorable Mention" award in 20024. The award was jointly given by Battelle Memorial Institute and Stony Brook University.
As an experimental particle physicist, Prof. Bhuyan is working with several International Collaboration to understand the Nature at the most fundamental level. In particular, he is interested in understanding the matter anti-matter asymmetry in the Universe, which physicists believe to be due to a phenomenon called CP violation and the fundamental nature of the neutrino particles. Currently, he is working on the Belle and Belle II experiments at KEK in Japan, the Nova and the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) at Fermi Lab, USA. Prof. Bhuyan is a Advisory Board member for the SAND consortium of the DUNE experiment. Prof. Bhuyan is also serving as a UGC nominated member of the Academic Council of Inter University Accelerator Centre (IUAC), New Delhi.
Prof. Bhuyan made academic visits to BNL, USA; SLAC, USA; University of Victoria, Canada; McGill University, Canada; CERN, Switzerland; University of Perth, Australia; KEK, Japan; Fermi Lab, USA; University of Virginia, USA; Joint Institute of Nuclear Resarch (JINR), Russia in the past and remains a regular visitor to Fermi Lab and KEK.
