Biography

Jasmine Ghamsari is a postgraduate researcher in the Experimental Particle and Astroparticle Physics Group in the Department of Physics at King’s College London. Jasmine completed her bachelor’s degree in physics at UCL where she developed skills in particle physics, machine learning and experimental physics. She went onto to obtain a master’s degree from the University of Surrey with a specialisation in nuclear physics, nuclear security, nuclear astrophysics and machine learning. Jasmine began her joint PhD in 2024, a collaboration between King's College London (KCL) and the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory Particle Physics Department (RAL PPD).

Her research interests include Astroparticle physics, Machine learning and Simulations.

Jasmine works on the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment, with her research focused on the development of novel background mitigation techniques and detector optimisation strategies to enhance sensitivity to dark matter interactions. She also contributes towards the commissioning of a new detector at the world’s first dedicated cryogenic radon emanation system - the Cold Radon Emanation Facility (CREF) - supporting the development of next-generation detector for XLZD through low-temperature radon assays and material screening.
