My profile has been taken into account as a meeting point of the mechanical and structural team and the electronic one in the study and design of the MAORY instrument of the ELT telescope, with a scholarship from INAF. After a brief period in which my work focused on FEM analysis and the study of thermal insulation for innovative cooling systems for electrical cabinets, I'm now working on the RAMS and FMEA/FMECA realted to the subsystems assigned to the OACN teams. Since January 2022 I have been involved as deputy in the PA/QA of the VLT spectrograph CUBES, participating, for the first time, to the starting plan phase of a product. Since March 2022 I have been employed as temporary research fellow with a research grant in the same positions.
MAORY is the adaptive optics module under construction for ELT. ELT (Extreme Large Telescope) is the largest telescope in the world currently under construction (primary mirror of 39 m) an it is considered worldwide to be one of the highest priorities in ground based astronomy. Once it works (first light expected by the end of 2026) ELT will allow a huge progress in all areas of astrophysics. MAORY will help compensate for the distortion of light caused by turbulence in the Earth’s atmosphere that blurs astronomical images through the use of deformable mirrors, laser and natural guide stars. MAORY is built by a consortium of three institutions, INAF, IPAG (Grenoble, France), NUIG (Galway, Ireland).
CUBES (Cassegrain U-Band Efficient Spectrograph), is the forthcoming ESO VLT spectrograph to be installed at one Cassegrain focus of the VLT with the goal of covering with a high efficiency the UV ground-based region (300 - 400 nm) with intermediate resolution (about 20K).
