Daniel Tapia Takaki

Daniel Tapia Takaki is a high-energy nuclear physicist and a professor of physics at the University of Kansas. He is a member of the ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) collaboration at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider, where he studies strong gluon fluctuations in the proton and lead nuclei to understand quantum chromodynamics and determine the initial state of ultra-relativistic protons and ions at high energies. Tapia Takaki also works for the Electron-Proton/Ion Collider collaboration at Brookhaven National Laboratory.
