19.09.2023PhD awarded to Yannick Müller

Congratulations to Dr. Yannick Mülller who successfully defended his Ph.D. thesis this September. During his thesis, Yannick worked on the GERDA experiment and on the LEGEND-200 experiment at LNGS.  In particular, he was involved in the design, construction and installation of the LEGEND calibration hardware,  in the characterisation of the neutron flux emitted by the custom-made sources, and in background predictions via Monte Carlo simulations. He also performed a search for BSM physics in the low-energy data of GERDA, and in particular he searched for ALPs, dark photons and other rare interactions.
