Dr Jost Migenda

Biography

Jost Migenda is a Research Associate in the Experimental Particle & Astroparticle Physics group at King’s College London. After graduating from TU Munich with an MSc in Nuclear, Particle and Astrophysics, they joined University of Sheffield as a PhD student to investigate Hyper-Kamiokande’s ability to distinguish between different computer simulations of supernovae. At King’s, they work on astrophysics and DAQ development for Hyper-Kamiokande and Super-Kamiokande. They are also a member of SNEWS2.0, which uses neutrino detectors around the world to provide an early warning to astronomers when the next galactic supernova is coming.
