Research
Focus on the search of gravitational waves through the study of pulsars using radiastronomy techniques.
Interdisciplinary research involving subjects such as the characterization of biological tissues and imaging of proteins activity and interactions in living cells.
Discovering the properties and fundamental physics of materials.
Study of gravitational waves, quantum and classical gravitation, quantum fields in curved space-time, and cosmology.
Algorithm development for direct image reconstruction, currently focused on thermoacoustic tomography (TCT), a hybrid imaging technique.
Chemical, Biological and Medical applications of advanced optical technology and imaging.
Research on: (1) elementary particle phenomenology related to experimental searches for new physics at the Large Hadron Collider; (2) hadronic interaction models through analyses of extensive air showers recorded by the Pierre Auger Observatory.
Experimental and theoretical research on the structure and properties of solid surfaces and on the interaction of surfaces with atoms and molecules.
Some prominent recent publications by Department members.
