Research Interests


  Numerical cosmology
  • Large computer simulations of cosmic structures.
  • Cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy clusters, galaxies and of the distribution of cosmic baryons.
  • 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
  • Cosmology with the Large-Scale Structure of the Universe
  • 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.
  Astroparticle physics
  • High-energy physics inspired Dark Matter models
  • Early universe and inflationary models
