Evan Hall

Research Scientist 1

evanhall@mit.edu

Evan received his BA in physics from the University of Chicago in 2012, and PhD in Physics from Caltech in 2017.

Evan’s research is focused on gravitational wave detection with laser interferometry. He is interested in new techniques for improving the performance of existing instruments like Advanced LIGO, and in the development of new instruments that have the potential to detect gravitational waves from the earliest binary systems.
