CMS guides

 


Sonia Natale 

Sonia studied Physics at the University of Rome « La Sapienza » and is CERN based since her Bachelor’s Degree. She spent one year at Ecole Polytechnique de Lausanne (EPFL) and then she moved to the University of Geneva - DPNC, obtaining her PhD in Particle Physics. 

She is a physics researcher, and is an expert in experimental astro-particle physics, silicon detectors and related laser devices. She contributed to the construction and commissioning of the AMS-02 experiment on the NASA International Space Station during her research activity at CERN (UniGe, RWTH, MIT).

She is also a scientific communication speaker involved in several CERN public outreach events and CERN focused programmes (National and International Teachers Training Programmes, National and International Masterclasses, Laboratory sessions as S’Cool Lab). She is a member of several juries and selection committees for Physics competitions for students (CERN BL4S, SYPT, IYPT) and  for teachers (CERN « I vostri successi »). Currently involved in the organisation of the first Science and Communication Hackathon event at CERN being part of the organisation Committee.

 

Roberto Seidita

 
Roberto studied physics at the University of Florence, where he obtained his PhD in particle physics. He has been active in the CMS experiment since before his bachelor's degree, working on measuring various properties of the Higgs boson.
 
Currently enrolled at ETH Zürich as a postdoctoral researcher, he continues working in the CMS experiment developing advanced machine learning algorithms to search for yet unknown physics beyond what the standard model describes, such as dark matter.

 

CMS virtual technical experts:

Zoltan and Noemi, physicists, PhD in particle physics

During the last 20 years, they have been working for Hardware Muon Barrel Alignment System and Fiber Optical Sensing System at CMS

Their big hobby has been the CMS Virtual visits since the beginning.
