Peter Athron

I investigate questions in theoretical particle physics and cosmology using a computational approach. I develop numerical methods, algorithms and open-source software to tackle challenging computational problems and answer fundamental scientific questions.

My research spans particle physics, cosmology, gravitational waves, Bayesian inference, numerical optimisation and scientific computing. I enjoy building robust computational tools that enable new scientific investigations and are useful to the wider research community.

Open-source software

  • TransitionSolver — Cosmological phase transitions: transition analysis, cosmological phase history and gravitational-wave predictions.
  • PhaseTracer — Vacuum structure and phase transition analysis in multi-field scalar theories.
  • FlexibleSUSY — Precision spectrum generators for beyond-the-Standard-Model theories.
  • GAMBIT — Global fits of beyond the standard model physics.
  • BubbleProfiler — Numerical calculation of bounce solutions for vacuum decay.
  • GM2Calc — Precision calculations of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon.
  • Next-to-Minimal SoftSUSY — Spectrum generator for the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model.
