Curriculum Vitae LUCIA ANNA DAMONE PERSONAL INFORMATION 49, via Accadia, San Severo, 71016, Italy- - -Sex Female | Date of birth 23/08/1989 Nationality Italian Post-Doc at Geneva University DATE DESCRIPTION 01/11/2019 – 01/06/2020 Joined the Cherenkov Telescpe Array (CTA) research group based at the University of Geneva. For the first 4 months I was involved in a project that studied the possibility of using two Silicon Phothon Multiplier (SiPM) present on the CTA telescope chamber, for Stellar Intensity Interferometry measurements. My activity concerned the project of an experimental set-up capable of simulating as much as possible the real conditions, as well as the data taking and the data analysis. For the last months, I have also been working on the development of software capable of extracting the gamma ray rate for the entire camera and per pixel of the LST (Large Size Telescopes) together with the related simulations via CORSIKA and sim-telarray. Project Associate at CERN with Fluka Team DATE DESCRIPTION 01/10/2018 – 01/11/2019 Collaboration on the project of a new experimental area for the n_TOF facility: "AREA 3" or "NEAR station". The role in the project was to simulate with fluka platform various combinations of filters and collimator of different material, shape and thickness, with the aim of obtaining an experimental area that would allow measurements of astrophysical interest, as well as single event effect studies, activation measures and nuclear imaging. © European Union,- | europass.cedefop.europa.eu Page 1 / 7 Curriculum Vitae Replace with First name(s) Surname(s) Ph.D PROJECT DATE TITLE THESIS TITLE 02/11/2015 – 08/03/2019 Ph.D. 7Be(n,p)6Li cross section for the Cosmological Lithium Problem at the n_TOF Facility at CERN Ph.D ACTIVITY - Measurement of the 235U(n,f) cross section from 200 MeV to 1 GeV; - Measurement of the 7Be(n,p)6Li cross section for the Cosmological Lithium Problem. - Measurement of the 89Y and 88Sr cross section.
