Sándor Lökös is an assistant professor at MATE Institute of Technology and he conducts his research in the Laboratory for Femtoscopy. His main focus is on high energy heavy ion data analysis recorded by the PHENIX experiment, one of the large collaboration, at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider, in Brookhaven National Laboratory, USA. He performs two-particle correlation measurements utilizing Levy distributed source hypothesis and aim for the observation of in-medium mass modification effects and partially coherent particle production. He also contributes to research on the field of relativistic hydrodynamics that is a useful modelling toolkit to understand the perfect liquid behaviour of the system which is created in heavy ion collisions that resembles the medium filled our Universe when it was just a microsecond old.

He is one of the co-chair of the Zimányi Winter Workshop and the guest editor of several proceedings volume related to it. He regularly works and publish together with international collaborators on the field of high energy particle physics.
