Research
Interests
Numerical
cosmology
- Large
computer simulations of cosmic structures.
- Cosmological
hydrodynamical
simulations
of
galaxy clusters, galaxies and of the
distribution of cosmic baryons.
- Models of
star formation, energy feedback and metal enrichment.
- Comparison
between simulated and observed thermo-dynamical and chemo-dynamical
properties of the intra-cluster and inter-galactic media.
- Comparison
between
simulated
and
observed properties of galaxies in the
optical/near-IR band.
Observational
cosmology
- Tests
of
cosmological
models
through the evolution of the population of
galaxy clusters and of their large-scale clustering.
- Calibration
of
methods
for
the measurement of masses of galaxy clusters through
X-ray, optical/dynamical and Sunyaev-Zeldovich observations.
- X-ray
properties
of
galaxy
clusters.
- Forecasts
for
constraints
on
cosmological models from future cluster surveys.
- Cosmology
with
large-scale
velocity
fields.
Astroparticle
physics
- High-energy
physics
inspired
Dark
Matter models
- Early
universe
and
inflationary
models
Involvement
in
space
missions
- EUCLID
- The
Wide-Field X-ray Telescope (WFXT)
- Athena+
