Philip Michael Tuts is an American high-energy experimental particle physicist, and Professor and Chair of the Columbia University Physics Department.[1] Tuts is a Fellow of the American Physical Society.[2] He holds a seat on the executive committees of the United States LHC Users' Association and the American Physics Society Forum on Physics and Society, and is Divisional Councilor of the Division of Particles and Fields of APS.[3] Tuts earned his Bachelor's in Physics from MIT in 1974, and his MA and PhD from the State University of New York at Stony Brook in 1976 and 1979, respectively.[1] He joined the physics department at Columbia University in the City of New York in 1983 and was appointed Chair in 2014.[1][2] Tuts is currently a member of the ATLAS experiment team at CERN and formerly served as US ATLAS Operations Program Manager.[4]

As operations manager, he led the team of 400 American physicists working on ATLAS during the experiment that led to the discovery of the Higgs boson.[5][6] Tuts is project manager of the D0 experiment at Fermilab and also leads the Calorimeter subgroup.[1]

Tuts has also used the CUSB detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring to investigate the Upsilon meson.[1] Tuts has authored over 600 publications in Physics.[2] He believes in the importance of public outreach by prominent physicists and the science community,[7] and writes a blog for the Huffington Post.[8] Professor Tuts has also given talks about his work at amateur societies and for lay audiences, and organized a gathering to watch the Higgs Boson announcement at Columbia University at 3 a.m. ET (9a.m. Geneva time).[9] At Columbia, he teaches introductory undergraduate mechanics and electromagnetics courses, which he enjoys. In 2004, Tuts was awarded a Presidential Award for Outstanding Teaching.[2] He has stated that he has been mistaken for Stephen King on several occasions.[7]

Transcription

MICHAEL TUTS: Probably the largest scientific instrument that's ever been created. MILES O'BRIEN: At the CERN lab in Switzerland, huge tools are needed to detect tiny particles. MICHAEL TUTS: But the real action happens underground in a cavern attached to the 17-mile circumference ring. Three thousand physicists working on this huge detector. This detector is 80 feet tall, 140 feet long. So, imagine that. MILES O'BRIEN: With support from the National Science Foundation, physicist Michael Tuts at Columbia and Kyle Cranmer at New York University are among the 21st Century explorers who have been searching for the mysterious Higgs boson. It's a subatomic particle that gives other particles, like quarks and electrons, mass. So tiny, yet where would we be without it? KYLE CRANMER: The universe would be a fundamentally different place. There would be no life. There'd be no stars. MILES O'BRIEN: Inside the world's biggest atom smasher, the ATLAS detector works like a huge digital camera. It records the collisions of hundreds of billions of protons at nearly the speed of light. MICHAEL TUTS: Our digital camera takes 40 million pictures per second. MILES O'BRIEN: Thousands of computers, like these at New York's Brookhaven National Lab, filter the images of those collisions, looking for traces of the Higgs boson, which decays quickly. MICHAEL TUTS: And the trick is not so much throwing stuff away, but making sure that you don't throw away the good stuff. MILES O'BRIEN: In July 2012, scientists celebrated. ROLF-DIETER HEUER: We have discovered a new particle, a boson. MICHAEL TUTS: We've seen something, and that something looks like a Higgs boson. KYLE CRANMER: Now that we have this new particle, we need to study it like crazy. We need to measure all of its properties. MILES O'BRIEN: The elusive Higgs, also known as the God particle, has captured the imagination of non-scientists, too. It even has its own music video. [music playing] KYLE CRANMER: This is a triumph of human curiosity. It's really key to our understanding of the universe. MILES O'BRIEN: Tuts and Cranmer say that at CERN, the Higgs is only the beginning. More exotic mysteries lie ahead, from figuring out what happened after the Big Bang to discovering extra dimensions of time and space. For Science Nation, I'm Miles O'Brien.
