Dimitris Papoulias


I am a Postdoc Researcher working with the group of Prof. N. Saoulidou at the Department of Physics, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece.

Previously, I worked as a Postdoc Researcher with the group of Prof. G. Leontaris at the Department of Physics, University of Ioannina, Greece, having a fellowship from the State Scholarships Foundation (IKY). Before that, I was a Postdoc Researcher at the Instituto de Física Corpuscular (joint center of CSIC and the University of Valencia), Spain, where I worked with the Astroparticles and High Energy Physics Group.

My main research area concerns the interdisciplinary phenomena and the interplay between nuclear physics, astroparticle physics, devoting special effort to the accurate treatment of important corrections imposed by nuclear theory. Recently, I started research into the wider aspects of neutrino physics with a goal to probe exotic interactions of neutrinos with matter, Dark Matter and axion-like particles (ALPs), taking into account laboratory experiments as well as cosmological observations.



My full CV can be found here.





Academic Degrees

PhD in Theoretical Physics from the University of Ioannina, Greece (2016),

MSc in Particle Physics from the University of Sussex, UK (2012).

BSc in Physics from the University of Ioannina, Greece (2010).


Research Interests

My research is focused on various beyond the Standard Model scenarios that can be probed at scattering experiments. In particular:

Neutrino phenomenology

Dark Matter phenomenology

Realistic nuclear structure calculations

Axion Physics
