Expert Introduction

Chen Gang is a researcher at the Institute of High Energy Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences. He graduated from the Department of Physics of Nanjing University in 1982. From 1986 to 1989, he studied for a master's degree at the China Academy of Engineering Physics. From 1991 to 1994, he studied for a doctorate at the Institute of High Energy Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Swiss Federal Technical University. From 1995 to 1996, he worked at the Postdoctoral Research Station of Peking University. Since 1993, he has participated in cooperative research at CERN many times. In 2004, he was hired as a researcher at the Institute of High Energy Physics. During his work and study at the China Academy of Engineering Physics, he participated in the experimental research of nuclear physics and neutron physics. With the support of the International Atomic Energy Agency, he is responsible for experimental research on the multiplication rate of neutrons in fissile materials. After arriving at the high-energy institute, he participated in the L3 experiment to study τ lepton physics, including τ decay branching ratio, polarization asymmetry, etc. In 1997, he began to participate in the development and physical research of Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS), and was responsible for the physical design and performance testing research of AMS electromagnetic energy-generating instrument. At the same time, he participated in the development and writing of AMS physical software. In addition to the experimental research of particle physics, he is also responsible for the research of high-performance computing environment. Establish and maintain a physical computing environment for high energy institutes. In cooperation with CERN, we have established a high-energy physical grid computing environment (LCG) in China, and introduced the CASTOR massive data storage management system and other software environments. At present, he is responsible for the establishment of a large-scale high-energy physics data grid center in China. He has published dozens of articles.
