Research activities

I am an experimental particle physicist interested in dark matter searches and in precision tests of the discrete symmetries C, P and T.
The Standard Model of the electroweak and strong interactions describes accurately all the results collected so far by earth based experiments but it fails to explain some key astrophysical observations leaving many important questions open.
What are the properties of the dark matter that held together the galaxies?
Why matter prevailed on anti-matter right after the big bang?
My activities attempt to help in solving these puzzles:
– the design of the sensors of the Darkside 20k experiment, a dual phase liquid-gas Argon time projection chamber able to detect the interaction of Weak Interacting Particles with ordinary matter.
– the analysis of the data from the Belle II detector which is recording the electron positron collisions at the SuperKEKB collider, a second generation flavor factory holding the world luminosity record.

Recent publications

  • Fermionic sub-GeV dark matter from evaporating primordial black holes at DarkSide-50 [2025]
  • Flow and thermal modelling of the argon volume in the DarkSide-20k TPC [2025]
  • Measurement of B → K*(892)γ decays at Belle II [2025]
  • Measurement of the branching fraction and CP -violating asymmetry of the decay B0 →pi0pi0 using 387 million Y(4S) decays in Belle II data [2025]
