Teaching and Mentoring

Teaching

  • Nov. 2021, Physics Lab assistant. I supported students that learnt basic programming skills for data analysis in C++ (20 h/yr)

  • Jun. 2021, Laboratory of Computational Astrophysics. I tutored a group of three students that completed a project using cosmo$\mathcal{R}$ate (12 h/yr)

  • Nov. 2020, Physics Lab assistant. I supported students that learnt basic programming skills for data analysis in C++ (20 h/yr)

Mentoring

  • Mar. 2022, Co-supervisor of Lorenzo Merli’s master thesis. Lorenzo looked at the evolution of the properties of Population III stars that can generate merging binary black holes at high redshift.

  • Dec. 2021, Co-supervisor of Roberta Rufolo’s master thesis. Roberta explored the impact of various prescritpions modelling the spin distributions of binary black holes detectable with LIGO-Virgo inteferometers. My main task was to guide her through the various functionalities of our codes.

Outreach

everything ready for the kilonova esperiment :)

  • Nov. 27, 2020, Night of Researchers. The 2020 Night of Researchers was followed by more than 500 people. I briefly introduced the gravitational wave topic and gave some short updates of my research work. At this link you can find the full recording.

  • Oct. 2018 - Mar. 2020, Guide for the Museum of History of Physics. I have been a guide for the Museum of History of Physics of the University of Padova. The visits were meant for both elementary and high school students
