Astroparticle Physics
Présentation :
I have more than 30 years of professional experience in astroparticle physics, a vibrant interdisciplinary field of research, relatively new, emerging at the intersection of particle physics, astrophysics, and cosmology. This discipline holds much promise in terms of prospects of new discoveries with its various infrastructures and facilities: underground and underwater experiments (IceCube, SNO+ , . . . ), ground-
based observatories (Pierre Auger, TA, HESS, LIGO, . . . ), and space-based detectors (AMS, Fermi, PAMELA, . . . ). I am currently a member of JEM-EUSO, the first space mission devoted to studying cosmic rays of ultra-high-energy from the International Space Station (ISS). I am also an observer member of KM3NeT, a research infrastructure in the Mediterranean sea housing the next-generation neutrino telescopes. My main research interest lies in the quest for the mysterious origin of very high-energy cosmic rays, a major scientific challenge in modern astrophysics. In this context, I have been developing/using advanced numerical applications in the environment of high-performance computing (HPC) to find good signatures of potential sources.
