<!– –>Field of Interest

The main field of interest is experimental high-energy physics using accelerators and astroparticle physics: Physics at Hadronic Colliders (CERN SppS and LHC, experiments UA2, UA2′, LHCB), Physics with neutral and charged Kaon beams (CERN experiments NA48, NA48/1, NA48/2, NA62) and High Energy Gamma Physics in space (FERMI experiment).
I’m also currently involved in several outreach activities.
