Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Particle physics
  • Quantum mechanics
  • Electron

Electron–positron annihilation, Nuclear physics, Particle physics, Branching fraction and B meson are his primary areas of study. The various areas that K. K. Gan examines in his Electron–positron annihilation study include Particle decay, Particle identification and Invariant mass. K. K. Gan interconnects Quantum chromodynamics, Asymmetry and Photon in the investigation of issues within Nuclear physics.

The Particle physics study combines topics in areas such as Lambda and Lepton. His Branching fraction study incorporates themes from Isospin, Omega and Semileptonic decay. His B meson study combines topics in areas such as Radiative transfer, Photon energy and CP violation.

His most cited work include:

  • Measurements of the meson-photon transition form factors of light pseudoscalar mesons at large momentum transfer (363 citations)
  • Study of the B- → J/ΨK -π+π- decay and measurement of the B - → X(3872)K- branching fraction (308 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of investigation include Particle physics, Electron–positron annihilation, Nuclear physics, Branching fraction and Particle decay. The study of Particle physics is intertwined with the study of Lepton in a number of ways. His Electron–positron annihilation research includes elements of B-factory, Pion, Omega, Baryon and CP violation.

The concepts of his Nuclear physics study are interwoven with issues in Amplitude, Lambda and Quantum chromodynamics. He combines subjects such as Resonance, Particle identification and Semileptonic decay with his study of Branching fraction. His studies examine the connections between Particle decay and genetics, as well as such issues in Pair production, with regards to Large Hadron Collider.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Particle physics (63.30%)
  • Electron–positron annihilation (56.57%)
  • Nuclear physics (51.38%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2021)?

  • Particle physics (63.30%)
  • Electron–positron annihilation (56.57%)
  • Nuclear physics (51.38%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

K. K. Gan spends much of his time researching Particle physics, Electron–positron annihilation, Nuclear physics, Branching fraction and Particle decay. K. K. Gan works mostly in the field of Particle physics, limiting it down to topics relating to Lepton and, in certain cases, Top quark and BaBar experiment. K. K. Gan has included themes like B meson, Resonance, CP violation and Asymmetry in his Electron–positron annihilation study.

K. K. Gan is studying Meson, which is a component of Nuclear physics. His Branching fraction research integrates issues from Particle identification, Hadron, Isospin, Center and Cabibbo–Kobayashi–Maskawa matrix. His research integrates issues of B-factory, Pion, Omega, Atomic physics and Annihilation in his study of Particle decay.

Between 2006 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Evidence of a broad structure at an invariant mass of 4.32GeV/c2 in the reaction e+e-→π+π-ψ(2S) measured at BABAR (180 citations)
  • The BABAR detector: Upgrades, operation and performance (105 citations)
  • E+e-→K+K-π+π-, K+K-π0π0 and K+K-K+K- cross sections measured with initial-state radiation (85 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Particle physics
  • Electron

K. K. Gan mainly focuses on Nuclear physics, Particle physics, Electron–positron annihilation, Branching fraction and Particle decay. His study in Nuclear physics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Event reconstruction and Photon. His Particle physics study frequently links to other fields, such as Lepton.

His work carried out in the field of Electron–positron annihilation brings together such families of science as Pion, Particle identification, Invariant mass, Atomic physics and Asymmetry. The study incorporates disciplines such as Hadron, Neutrino, Quantum chromodynamics, Electron and Semileptonic decay in addition to Branching fraction. His study with Particle decay involves better knowledge in Meson.
