Experimental physicist, working on the maintenance, operation and development of gas systems for particle detectors. Gianluca studied plasma physics at the University of Milano-Bicocca (IT). Gianluca fist joined CERN as a technical student in 2018, where he studied eco-friendly gas mixture for RPC detectors at LHC. He then continued as a doctoral student in the same group where he focused on the LHC Gas Systems and the development of different strategies to reduce the Greenhouse gases emissions from particle detectors.
In the context of the EP R&D program, Gianluca is following the activities focused on reducing and replacing the main fluorinated gases used at LHC experiments, namely R-134a and SF6, with new alternative gases.
