Research interests and hobbies
I am interested about fundamental Physics, cosmology, and computational aspect of calculations. I carried out my Master's thesis on flavour physics, and my Ph.D. thesis on dark matter. I focused in creating "DarkPACK": a piece of software that allows for computing dark matter observables from a given model.
I enjoy spending my free time going to concerts, sailing, and playing the violin.
DSTrain project
MARTY at GUM: improving the capabilities of GUM by integrating MARTY and DarkPACK
In this project, I will work on the integration of DarkPACK in GAMBIT. The former is the code for dark matter calculations which I have developed, and the latter is a framework that allows for interfacing different codes whose goal is to extract physical quantities from New Physics model. GAMBIT also enables to perform statistical inference based on the results of the calculations. This is of crucial importance in Theoretical Physics, in order to have a "complete", as much as possible, profile of New Physics models, allowing for a better discrimination of more promising models.
