Scientific Experience
| 2007-2009 |
Project Leader of the JET-EP2 Radiation-hard Hall Probe Enhancement Project.
Leader of an applied research project, aiming the realization, installation and testing magnetic field sensors resistent to neutron irradiations in the machine for the study of controlled nuclear fusion, JET. Jointly financed by EURATOM e STCU (www.stcu.int), the project is fruit of an international collaboration between various reaserch entities and laboratories, among which the CREATE Consortium, the RFX Consortium in Padua, the Magnetic Sensor Laboratory of the National Lviv Polytechnic University in Ukraine, the JET Laboratories, the Institute of Plasma Physics of the Czech Republic. |
| 2008 |
Scientific Coordinator
Scientific Coordinator of two experimental sessions (plus one subsession) of the JET machine, in the framework of the JET EP Magnetic Diagnostic Enhancement Project. The aim was to perform a number of ad-hoc designed dry runs and plasma pulses, in order to obtain data to be used mainly to accurately calibrate the new magnetic diagnostic systems (as well as the established ones) recently installed in the JET machine |
