Riccardo's thesis focused on accretion of matter onto black holes of different masses. It studied one of the most known, yet still unexplained, observational relations in active super-massive black holes and compared it with observations of their stellar-mass relative. It made use of the newly-launched eROSITA X-ray telescope to study a new class of transient accretion events around black...

The Twinkle Space Mission is a space-based observatory that has been conceived to measure the composition of solar system objects, exoplanets, protoplanetary disks and stars. The satellite is based on a high-heritage platform and will carry a 0.45 m telescope with a visible and infrared spectrograph providing simultaneous wavelength coverage from 0.5 - 4.5 μm. The spacecraft will be launched...

PhD Awards II

Liquid water plays an active role in shaping molecular evolution during the Origin of Life. Water cycles under a Hadean CO2 atmosphere create fluctuations in the salinity, pH and temperature that drive the replication and evolution of long DNA sequences. The water cycles at the millimeter-scale also affect the assembly, division and selection of coacervate protocells.

RU-A "Fundamental Particles and Forces"

An important ongoing program in high-energy nuclear physics is the exploration of the phase diagram of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) at large values of temperature and/or densities. In that regime, QCD predicts the existence of a quark-gluon plasma (QGP) state, in which quarks are deconfined and can move freely over distances comparable with the size of hadrons. Results from heavy-ion collision...
