Melvin MEIJER

Radboud University Nijmegen – The Netherlands

I am a 2nd year PhD student at the Radboud University, Nijmegen, and a member of the D0 collaboration at Fermilab. My physics analysis is part of the search for a low mass Standard Model Higgs Boson, where I'm studying the decay of W to W H to tau nu bb. I also worked for the tracking group of D0, by helping to make use of timing information provided by a new readout system of the CFT (Central Fiber Tracker) in order to reduce the number of fake tracks from the tracking algorithm.
