Professor Richard Ball
Congratulations to Professor Richard Ball who is among the distinguished individuals elected to become Fellows of the Royal Society of Edinburgh (RSE).
Professor Ball works in the area of particle physics theory, the study of elementary particles and their interactions as revealed by experiments at particle colliders such as the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. He has a broad range of interests, from chirality and the Higgs boson, to high energy quantum chromodynamics, and the extraction of precision physics from hadronic collisions using neural networks and machine learning.
