COMPUTING EXPERIENCE
During my thesis I’ve been using the RooFit program, the C++ computing language and LaTex.
I’m familiar with the Windows operative system and the usual Microsoft Office, with the Linux and Mac operative system.
RESEARCH EXPERIENCE
A relevant work during my studies was my graduation thesis. It was about the Bs-Bsbar oscillations in the LHCb experiment and it included the development of a program with the RooFit software in order to determine the sensitivity for the oscillation frequency and the tagging efficiency of the experiment using a Monte Carlo simulation. How this accuracy changes with the events yield, the background to signal ratio and the proper time resolution was also a target of both the program and the thesis.
Another relevant work was my master thesis. It contained studies of CP Violation with semileptonic decays of the B0 meson in the LHCb experiment. Studies on real LHCb data were performed to measure the oscillation frequency, as a check for the further studies performed later in the thesis. A sensitivity to the flavour specific asymmetry afs was given with Monte Carlo simulations including effects due to statistics, flavour tagging, time resolution model and pollutants asymmetries such as production and detection asymmetries. As in the graduation thesis, all the studies were performed with a program developed with the RooFit software giving me the opportunity to learn it to a better level than the previous thesis. I consider my master thesis as a chance to keep my work in this particular field of Particle Physics; starting from this thesis, further studies can be performed and the sensitivity can increase with more data and other improvements.
In January 2013 I started to work as a Ph.D. student at the Physics Department in Ferrara, remaining in the LHCb group. Since then I am keeping on my work with semileptonic B decays, focusing on an important problem such as the k-factor computing. Plus, I am working on the data acquisition system for a prototype that the Ferrara INFN wants to propose for the LHCb upgrade; I am working on the acquisition software, I wrote a program for data analysis and performing the very first tests for the data acquisition system.
In October 2013 I performed tests on the electronics of the M2R2 station of the Muon Detector of the LHCb detector, also writing a program for the analysis of the dark rate.
From March 2013 to June 2013 I was the tutor for two courses at the Ferrara University:
- Classical Physics (Fisica 1) for the Bachelor Degree in Physics and Astrophysics
- Electromagnetism (Fisica 2) for the Bachelor Degree in Informatics

OTHER EXPERIENCES
In April 2013 I attended the INFN Fifth National School “Detectors and Electronics for High Energy Physics, Astrophysics, Spacial Applications and Medical Physics” in Legnaro, Padova.
In May 2013 I attended the Ferrara International School Niccolo’ Cabeo “Physics beyond Standard Model: the Precision Frontier” in Ferrara.
In July 2013 I successfully participated in the Hadron Collider Summer School (HASCO) at Georg-August-Universitat Gottingen in Germany, where I gave a seminar talk in English about “Bayesian Inference in Processing Experimental Data Principles and Basic Applications”.
I also participated in the written examination and passed it successfully.
