  Matthew Solt is located at
  San Francisco, San Francisco, United States

• What is Matthew Solt's job title?

  Matthew Solt is a
  Current graduate student working in the Heavy Photon Search (HPS) group with various projects. FACET - Fall 2014 rotation project on exploring the feasibility of optical diffraction radiation as a beam diagnostic technique at FACET's plasma wake-field accelerator. LUX/LZ - Winter 2015 rotation project running Monte Carlo simulations for a water tank radiation shield for the LZ prototype direct dark matter detector at SLAC. HPS - Spring and summer 2015 rotation project analyzing data to test detector performance during the spring engineering run.Successfully resolved the discrepancy between Monte Carlo simulations and data specifically applied to processes involving the W boson and two jets using the Madgraph5/AMC at NLO generator. Explored jet re-clustering algorithms for improved W-tagging, and thus searches for new physics. Updated firmware using a Virtex 4 FPGA and hsio board used in a beam telescope to test a new sensor technology - HV-CMOS.Plan and run period tutoring sessions for introductory calculus-based physics courses to students who desire additional assistance. Tutor various subjects several hours per week including math, engineering, and physics courses.Successful in developing simulations and software to show the ability of a beam position monitor (BPM) to detect a certain type of beam instability known as the head-tail motion. Used simulation results to compare to real data from BPMs and beam size monitors (BSM), both of which showed agreement.Worked with the Low Energy Neutron Detector Array (LENDA) at NSCL and changed the data acquisition system from an analog system to the Digital Data Acquisition System (DDAS). Successful in testing the energy threshold and linearity of LENDA, and LENDA will be used in future charge-exchange experiments at NSCL.Responsible for materials for large projects including a casting carousel and a sand regeneration machine. Responsible for keeping track of active and inactive insurance policies as well as data logging. SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
