Rate My Professor Jeremy Mans

Mans conducts research in experimental high-energy physics, focusing on collider and fixed-target experiments. As a member of the CMS Collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider, he investigates the structure of the proton and searches for new particles in proton-proton collisions using the CMS detector. His group develops a new endcap calorimeter for the High-Luminosity LHC upgrade, providing three-dimensional imaging of particle showers for the first time in a hadron collider. Mans also works on the LDMX experiment to search for sub-GeV dark matter in electron fixed-target beams. He serves as Principal Investigator for the U.S. CMS Hadron Calorimeter Subsystem and the LDMX experiment, and as Co-Investigator for High-Luminosity LHC CMS upgrades. In 2023, he received the Distinguished Research Award. Mans has authored over 1,400 research articles, including recent publications such as "A method for correcting the substructure of multiprong jets using the Lund jet plane" (Journal of High Energy Physics, 2025), "Angular analysis of the B0 → K*(892)0 μ+μ− decay in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV" (Physics Letters B, 2025), "Bottom quark energy loss and hadronization with B+ and Bs0 nuclear modification factors using pp and PbPb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV" (Journal of High Energy Physics, 2025), "Constraints on standard model effective field theory for a Higgs boson produced in association with W or Z bosons in the H → bb¯ decay channel in proton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV" (Journal of High Energy Physics, 2025), and "Constraints on the Higgs boson self-coupling from the combination of single and double Higgs boson production in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV" (Physics Letters B, 2025).
