Luigi Antonio FUSCO | Curriculum

Luigi Antonio Fusco graduated (cum laude) in Physics at the University of Bologna in 2012, with a Master's Thesis on the measurement of the atmospheric neutrino energy spectrum with the ANTARES neutrino telescope.

He obtained his PhD at the University of Bologna in 2016, studying the cosmic diffuse neutrino flux, with a particular focus on galactic emissions.

He has been a post-doctoral researches at the Department of Physics of the University of Bologna between 2016 and 2017, mainly working on searches for cosmic neutrinos over the whole sky, and in the analysis of astrophysical phenomena such as Gravitational Waves and Gamma Ray Bursts with neutrino telescope, following the multi-messenger approach.

He has been responsible of the Monte Carlo simulations in the ANTARES experiment since 2017.

Between 2018 and 2019 he has been a postdoctoral researcher at the APC Laboratory in Paris, where he worked in the field of multi-messenger astronomy with Mediterranean neutrino telescopes, searching for neutrinos in coincidence with high energy gamma ray emissions.

He followed-up these activities between 2020 and 2021 at the CPPM Laboratory, in Marseille. There he was coordinator of the KM3NeT/ORCA data analysis and he has been since then also Data Processing and Data Quality coordinator of the KM3NeT Collaboration.

Since March 2022 he is a research fellow at the University of Salerno, where he mainly works in the field of multi-messenger astronomy and neutrino physics with large volume water Cherenkov detectors.
