SUMMARY:ICFO | HALINA ABRAMOWICZ
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Halina Abramowicz studied physics at Warsaw University where sh
 e completed her PhD and Habilitation degrees in experimental particle phys
 ics. In 1993 she moved from Warsaw University to Tel Aviv University\, whe
 re she is presently the incumbent of the Nathan Cummings Chair of Experime
 ntal Particle Physics. Her PhD was based on study of double scattering in 
 high energy pion-deuterium scattering in the 15-foot bubble chamber at Fer
 miLab. After a postdoc at CERN\, in the neutrino group of Prof. Jack Stein
 berger\, she based her habilitation on precise determination of the Weinbe
 rg angle from the ratio of neutral to charged current cross sections. She 
 went on to study deep inelastic electron-proton scattering with the ZEUS d
 etector at the HERA collider at DESY\, Hamburg. She was part of the team t
 hat discovered and identified a new class of events\, today commonly accep
 ted as resulting from deep inelastic diffractive scattering. She spent num
 erous years at DESY\, in particular as a Humboldt fellow and later on as t
 he Lisa Meitner Humboldt prize awardee. During the lifetime of the experim
 ent\, she held numerous positions of responsibility within the ZEUS Collab
 oration\, in particular as Physics Coordinator in the last year of data ta
 king. While working on the ZEUS experiment\, she was part of the Israeli t
 eam that provided the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at CER
 N with the forward muon trigger. Within the ATLAS experiment\, she pursues
  her interests in the structure of the proton by studying hard double-part
 on scattering\, which may shed light on the three dimensional structure of
  the proton. In 2014/2015 she spent a sabbatical year at CERN as chair of 
 the ATLAS Publication Committee. Since 2006\, she is an external member of
  the Directorate of the Max Planck Institute for Physics in Munich. She is
  also a Scientific Member of the Max Planck Society. She was elected EPS F
 ellow in 2014 and Foreign Member of the Polish Academy of Arts and Science
 s (PAU) in 2015. In the years 2015-2017 she chaired the European Committee
  for Future Accelerators and in September 2017 she was nominated by the CE
 RN Council to chair the European Strategy Update process (to be completed 
 in May 2020).
