Biography

Abdulrahman Alhebsi is a Ph.D student in astroparticle physics working under the supervision of Dr. Satyendra Thoudam and Dr. Arjen van Vliet. He is working on modeling ultra-high-energy cosmic rays and astrophysical neutrinos and their subsequent detection at Earth. He is part of the Cubic Kilometer Neutrino Telescope (KM3NeT), a large international collaboration of scientists developing a next-generation neutrino telescope located at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea.

Abdulrahman specialized in astrophysics during his undergraduate studies at the University of Sheffield. At the University of Edinburgh, he worked on mathematical biology for his master's thesis, titled "Dynamics of a Surface-Bound
Bacterial Population Infected by
Bacteriophages Diffusing in the Bulk", for which he was awarded Honours with Distinction.
