Comment: Sorry but none of the sources support notability in this case. Check these guidelines and if you think there's something that would make them notable feel free to leave a message on my talk page. WP:NPROF Dr vulpes (Talk) 01:03, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: He has made a good start to his career. However, as an associate professor with an h-factor of 31 and no major awards he has done way to go. I strongly suggest waiting a few years. Ldm1954 (talk) 13:32, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

Kyle George Leach (born September 15, 1983) is a Canadian physicist and associate Professor at the Colorado School of Mines. He is best known for his research in the area of precision measurements of the fundamental symmetries of nature using nuclear beta decay. Leach is also faculty in both Quantum Engineering and Nuclear Engineering at the Colorado School of Mines, the Science Director of the Colorado Low-background Research Facility, an Adjunct Associate Professor at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams at Michigan State University, and an Affiliate Scientist at TRIUMF in Canada.
Biography
[edit]Leach was born in Tiny Township, Ontario, Canada, and was raised in the small village of Hillsdale in Springwater Township in Central Ontario. He attended high school at Barrie Central Collegiate Institute where he played a wide range of varsity athletics including rugby, football, ski racing, and track and field, and was a member of the Senior Concert Band. Following completion of OAC In 2002, he moved to Guelph, Ontario, Canada where he attended the University of Guelph for his undergraduate studies. While pursuing his degree, Leach was a winger and fullback on the Guelph Gryphons OUA varsity rugby team and worked at Honda of Canada Manufacturing as an assembly line worker. Leach received his B.Sc. (Honours) degree in Physics from the University of Guelph in 2006.
Following his undergraduate degree, Leach continued his studies at Guelph completing his M.Sc. In 2008 and his Ph.D. in 2013 in Nuclear Physics under the advisement of Profs. Carl Svensson and Paul Garrett. His graduate work focused primarily on nuclear structure studies related to tests of CKM unitary at TRIUMF in Vancouver, Canada,[1] and the Technical University of Munich in Germany.[2][3][4] In 2013, Leach accepted a postdoctoral position at TRIUMF performing AMO physics research with the TITAN experiment under the advisement of Jens Dilling using highly charged radioactive ions.[5]
In 2015, Leach moved to Golden, Colorado where he is a member of the physics faculty at the Colorado School of Mines. Since he moved to Colorado, his research has focused on embedding radioactive nuclei into superconducting sensors to perform precision tests of the Standard Model. Leach co-founded the BeEST experiment[6][7] and has led the creation of the field of "rare-isotope-doped superconductors" with experiments including the Superconducting Array for Low Energy Radiation (SALER) at FRIB.[8]
