Cohl Furey

Cohl Furey, also known as Nicohl Furey,[1] is a Canadian mathematical physicist.[2][3]

Career

As of 2019 Furey is a research fellow at the University of Cambridge, where she is a member of the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics high energy physics research group.[4] Her main interests are division algebras, Clifford algebras, and Jordan algebras, and their relation to particle physics. Her work focuses on finding an underlying mathematical structure to the Standard Model of particle physics. She is most noted for her work on octonions.[5][6][7] She has worked on attempting to obtain the Standard Model of particle physics from octonionic constructions.[2][5][7] In her 2018 paper "SU(3)_C × SU(2)_L × U(1)_Y ( × U(1)_X ) as a symmetry of division algebraic ladder operators,"[8] according to Quanta Magazine, "she consolidated several findings to construct the full Standard Model symmetry group, SU(3) × SU(2) × U(1), for a single generation of particles, with the math producing the correct array of electric charges and other attributes for an electron, neutrino, three up quarks, three down quarks and their anti-particles. The math also suggests a reason why electric charge is quantized in discrete units — essentially, because whole numbers are."[2]

Media recognition

In 2019, Wired.com listed her in their article "10 Women in Science and Tech Who Should Be Household Names".[9]
