Profiles

I was born in Brescia in January 1992. I started my University studies in Pisa where I achieved the Bachelor Degree in Physics in 2014 and the Master Degree in October 2016.
During my Master Degree I focused on high energy physics studies and mainly on particle physics. I won a scholarship for the SLAC/INFN Exchange Program and I spent a term (July-September 2015) at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, in Menlo Park (California).
For my Master Thesis I concentrated on the b flavor physics at electron-positron colliders, studying rare baryonic decays of the neutral B mesons produced from the Upsilon(4S) decays. I performed the whole analysis for the measurement of the branching fraction of the baryonic decay mode B0(Bbar0) → p p anti-p anti-p at the BaBar experiment and its future prospects at Belle II experiment. Besides my analysis project, during my thesis I worked with the Pisa Silicon Vertex Detector group of the Belle II collaboration, involved in the production (assembling and electrical testing) of the backward and forward modules – which exploit the Double-sided Silicon Strip Detector  (DSSD) technology – for the outer layers of the vertex detector of the Belle II experiment, at KEK, in Japan.
At present, I am a member of the SVD group of Belle II and I am still working on BaBar analyses. I really appreciated experiencing both detector assembling challanges and data analysis and my next plans are to keep on working on both sides.
