Gyang Chung

Gyang Chung is a Ph.D. student in the Experimental Nuclear and Particle Physics division at Virginia Tech. He joined in August 2022. His current research focuses on Generalized Parton Distribution experimental investigations, as well as contributing to the creation of a Muon detector for a
Jefferson Lab experiment, for a project of measuring Double Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering.

In spring of 2023, Gyang worked on DIS charged background asymmetries (see report). He is now working with GlueX to study channels with one photon + one meson emitted with a high invariant mass.

Education and past research activities:

In 2022, Gyang received a European Master in Nuclear Physics from the Nucphys consortium of universities: University of Seville (Spain), University of
Padova (Italy), and University of Caen (France). He worked on the simulation of neutron-antineutron oscillation suppression in B-field for the NNBAR project at ESS Lund during the summer of 2021. For nearly a year, he actively contributed to the bSTILED group at LPC Caen. He created a Geant4 simulation code for the He-6 fast beam experiment's detector. In addition, he performed various simulations and experiments in preparation for the fast beam experiment at GANIL to measure the fierz term in He-6 decay with high precision.
