Research Interest
The dominant research topic concerns the relativistic heavy ion physics experiments, the purpose of which is the study of the plasma phase of quark and gluon. Specifically, the activity was and is mainly carried out in data analysis, in Monte Carlo simulations, and in software development for NA50, NA60 and ALICE collaborations at CERN. The first two experiments used the IPS bundle (respectively Pb and In) of the SPS on a fixed target, while ALICE uses the colliding bands of LHC ions Pb. The analysis was mainly focused on the dimunal channel and focused on the production of vector mesons and signal excess compared to adonic acid cocktails in the low mass region
