CREF promotes original and high-impact lines of research, based on physical methods, but with a strong interdisciplinary character and in relation to the main problems of the modern knowledge society.
The CREF was born with a dual soul: a research centre and a historical museum. Its aim is to preserve and disseminate the memory of Enrico Fermi and to promote the dissemination and communication of scientific culture.
Higher education and projects for young researchers
My scientific activity takes place in various fields of physics.
Since 2006, I have worked on nuclear physics, particularly phase transitions in fermion gases and collective and exotic phenomena in few-nucleon nuclear matter. The research is in collaboration with the Joint Institute of Nuclear Research in Dubna.
In the field of High Energy Physics, I am a member of the ATLAS collaboration at the LHC of CERN in Geneva. At ATLAS, I was responsible for developing and integrating a new large detector, the New Small Wheel, for which we created the largest Micromegas technology detectors. I am a DLJ (Displaced Lepton Jets) group member studying the production of exotic particles and dark matter candidates at ATLAS.
In the astrophysics field, I collaborated on the Extreme Energy Events Project, for which I held the role of coordinator of the Observatory for the Piedmont Region. I also held the role of Upgrade Coordinator until 2018.
I have always been involved in science communication, organizing schools and events for citizens, and dealing with Technology Transfer since 2017. In this area, I have several collaborations with research bodies such as the National Institute of Metrological Research and the Polytechnic of Turin aimed at cross-fertilization between commercial technologies and those from Fundamental Research with implications in the timing, medical and technological fields.
