  • 2018 - Hans A. Bethe Prize, American Physical Society For outstanding contributions across a broad spectrum of fields including nuclear physics, particle physics, theoretical and observational astrophysics, and cosmology, especially Big Bang nucleosynthesis and the properties of dark matter.
  • 2003 - Fellow of American Physical Society (APS) Citation For contributions torward the development of astroparticle physics In particular, for work done on early universe cosmology, including pioneering efforts in big bang nucleosynthesis and supersymmetric dark matter

Overview

Keith A. Olive is affiliated with the University of Minnesota in the United States. Their primary research field is Physics and Astronomy, with a substantial focus on Nuclear and High Energy Physics and Astronomy and Astrophysics. Their body of work also extends to General Health Professions, Artificial Intelligence, and Atomic and Molecular Physics, and Optics.

Olive's research addresses a variety of topics, including:

  • Cosmology and Gravitation Theories
  • Dark Matter and Cosmic Phenomena
  • Particle Physics Theoretical and Experimental Studies
  • Black Holes and Theoretical Physics
  • Galaxies: Formation, Evolution, Phenomena
  • Computational Physics and Python Applications
  • Geophysics and Gravity Measurements

They have published extensively, with frequent contributions appearing in venues such as:

  • arXiv (Cornell University)
  • Physical Review D
  • Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics
  • The European Physical Journal C
  • Journal of High Energy Physics

Some of their recent papers include:

  • "Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis after Planck" (2020), Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics
  • "Reheating and post-inflationary production of dark matter" (2020), Physical Review D
  • "Gravitational production of dark matter during reheating" (2021), Physical Review D
  • "Probing physics beyond the standard model: limits from BBN and the CMB independently and combined" (2022), Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics
  • "Gravitational portals in the early Universe" (2022), Physical Review D

Olive collaborates regularly with several researchers, notably:
