Dr Kevin Thieme

I am an experimental astroparticle physicist and a member of the LZ, XLZD, and MIGDAL collaborations. My research focuses on the direct detection of dark matter and other rare-event searches using dual-phase noble-element time projection chambers (TPCs) operated in low-background environments. Since 2026, I have been a Junior Research Fellow of Wolfson College.
