Research:

I work on the DØ experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. We are currently working on the measurement of the W mass.

I also work on the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN.

We have disigned, built and installed the high voltage feedthrough system for the ATLAS liquid argon calorimeters. We are working on calorimeter calibration amd missing ET.

We have just performed the most accurate measurement of the W mass by a single experiment (arXiv:0908.0766), submitted to Phys. Rev. Letters.

My publications are listed on SPIRES, under the names Robert L. McCarthy, R. L. McCarthy, and R. McCarthy(on D0 and ATLAS but NOT LIGO).

Teaching:

I am currently teaching PHY301 Electromagnetic Theory.

Service:

I am the advisor for the teacher certification programs for the Department of Physics and Astronomy.
