People makes GravitySirens

Simone Mastrogiovanni

email: mastrosi[AT]roma1.infn.it

I am a researcher at the Italian Institute for Nuclear Physics (INFN) in Rome, and I am also the Principal Investigator of the GravitySirens project. My research mainly focuses on building new techniques for Gravitational Wave cosmology and astrophysics. I am also part of the Virgo and Einstein Telescope collaboration for almost a decade. When I do not work, I enjoy dancing swing (lindy hop)  and climbing. 

Grégoire Pierra

email: gregoire.pierra[AT]roma1.infn.it

I am a Postdoctoral researcher at the Italian National Institute for Nuclear Physics (INFN) in Rome, Italy, working as part of the GravitySirens ERC project. My research focuses on gravitational-wave (GW) cosmology and the various methods for measuring cosmological parameters using GW detections from compact binary coalescences. I have been a full member of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA scientific collaboration for four years, and I am also a member of the Einstein Telescope collaboration. Outside of physics, I dedicate all of my free time to training and climbing.

Sarah Ferraiuolo

email: sarah.FERRAIUOLO[AT]univ-amu.fr

I am a PhD student jointly affiliated with Sapienza University of Rome and Aix-Marseille University. My research centres on gravitational wave cosmology, with a focus on improving the analysis by incorporating new elements, such as the stochastic gravitational wave background and more complete galaxy catalogues, such as Euclid. Beyond diving into GWs and cosmology, I enjoy exploring different cuisines, going to the cinema and eating gelato! 

Leonardo Iampieri

Leonardo is a Physics PhD student at Sapienza University of Rome. His thesis focuses on the development of new tests of General Relativity at cosmological scales and machine learning tools for compact binary coalescences population studies.

Arianna Scarpa

I am a second year Master student in Physics at Sapienza University of Rome, and I am currently developing my thesis project with the GravitySirens group, under the supervision of Dr. Simone Mastrogiovanni. My thesis focuses on using the machine learning technique of Normalizing Flows to model the distributions of compact binaries from synthetic astrophysical catalogs and to perform spectral sirens cosmology. Apart from physics, I enjoy playing musical instruments, singing and swimming.
