Curriculum vitae

My research interests include multi-wavelength study of isolated neutron stars, Gamma Ray Bursts, Gravitational Wave and Fast Radio Burst counterpart searches and study. Projects I am currently involved in, with various roles, include: REM, GAIA, Euclid, CTA, Grawita, ENGRAVE, Theseus, the Antola telescope, etc. The development of data management systems has been my main activity within several projects, both from ground and space, covering almost the whole energy spectrum. I manage several project servers used both as data storage and data processing systems. For example I developed and run the REM images archive system. I also manage several web services which make use of JavaScript webtools and the LAMP stack. I write websites either from scratch or using the Wordpress CMS. I am familiar with all the major programming languages and make use of relational databases since more than 20 years. Using MySQL and custom, open source code, in collaboration with Turin Observatory I made easily queryable any astronomical catalogue using various programming languages, including Fortran and IDL. I implemented and used sky catalogues indexed using HEALPix an HTM well before the VO became aware of them. A few links you might find of interest:
