Banajit Barman,
Experimental High-Energy Physics
I study the collective dynamics of the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) in the ALICE Collaboration at CERN, Switzerland. My work explores the study of QGP in small collision systems.

Research Focus
Relativistic hadronic collisions experiments and phenomenology.
As an active researcher within the ALICE Collaboration, my primary focus lies in unravelling the collective dynamics of the QCD medium in small systems. My work bridges experimental data analysis and phenomenological modelling, specifically targeting the emergence of medium-like behaviours in small and light-ion collision systems at LHC energies.
Alongside experimental work, I use phenomenological models to understand mechanisms of particle production and underlying events in such collisions. My research also extends into baryon number transport via sting junction.
Key Research Areas:
- Light-flavour particle production
- Baryon number transport mechanisms
- Collective dynamics in small systems
- Phenomenological modelling with PYTHIA 8
- Heavy-flavour hadronisation
