Francesco Tortorici
Scientific Tutor: Sebastiano Francesco ALBERGO
PhD in Physics at the University of L'Aquila with a 110/110 grade, presenting a doctoral thesis entitled "Cosmic Ray Propagation", of which Prof. S. Petrera was the promoter. Fellow of the Sicilian Center for Nuclear Physics and Structure of Matter on the topic "Research and development on a homogeneous trace detector, consisting of a time projection chamber (TPC) with liquid argon, for neutrino physics". Responsible at CERN, from September 2015 to February 2016, for the characterization of PMT's for the time projection chamber with liquid argon ICARUS-T600, in both room and cryogenic conditions, as a member of the light collection group coordinated by G. Raselli. Shift leader for various hadronic physics experiments at the Thomas Jefferson Laboratory, VA-US, in February-March and July-August 2016. Research fellow at the University of Catania as part of the project "Research and development on High Brightness Apparatus and High Acceptance for High Resolution Structure Investigation of the Hadrons ”. Research fellow at the INFN section of Catania, and INFN local manager for ICARUS (group 2 experiment), which was regularly funded, for the activities of the year 2018. Research fellow at the University of Catania as part of the project "SBN Experiment: short-baseline oscillations on muon neutrinos". Publications of which he is co-author are cited in literature by other authors.
