VIII: Research Activity:
My scientific activity since 1989 has been focused in the experimental investigation of the nature of the fundamental interaction, and developed mainly through the participation to the design and running of the experiments L3 at the LEP e+e- collider (1989-2000), CDF at the Tevatron p-pbar collider (1999-2012), ATLAS at the LHC pp collider (2006-today), DarkSide experiment at the LNGS laboratory of INFN (2014- 2018), and to the study for experiments at future colliders (FCCee and the IDEA detector concept).
In synergy with this activity since the mid-90s I have also strongly contributed to both the experimental application and the foundational development of modern Machine Learning, Deep Learning and Artificial Intelligence methods, in several research contexts (high-energy physics, astro-particle physics, condensed matter and statistical physics, applications in medicine and medical imaging, quantum computing and quantum machine learning).

In my research work I have contributed substantially and in first person to three of the most important results in physics of the last 20 years: the discovery of the Higgs boson at LHC (2011-12), to the first observation of the mixing of the Bs meson at Tevatron (first half of years 2000), and to the precise determination of the number of light neutrino families at LEP (years 1990-1995).

I’m author of more than 1700 scientific papers published in peer reviewed international journals (1758 refereed papers, database Scopus, December 26th, 2021). I have been among the main authors and substantially contributed to the results and the writing of the paper for more than 100 of these publications, and for a similar number I have heavily contributed at the reported results with physics studies or by the development of analysis tools extensively used in the result.

Total number of publications: 1758 (Scopus)
Total journal impact factor: ~11000 (Web of Science)
