Dr. Franceso SINIGAGLIA

Dr Francesco Sinigaglia
Post-doc
Biography:
Francesco obtained his PhD degree in Astronomy and Astrophysics in December 2023, jointly from the AV¶ÌÊÓÆµ of Padova (UniPD) in Italy and the Universidad de la Laguna (ULL)/Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) in Spain. The PhD thesis was carried out under the supervision of Prof. Giulia Rodighiero (UniPD) and Prof. Francisco-Shu Kitaura (ULL/IAC), and focused on the role of the neutral hydrogen in galaxy evolution and in cosmology. Francesco joined the "Starbursts in the Universe" group as a postdoc at the AV¶ÌÊÓÆµ in November 2023, working on radiative transfer postprocessing of hydrodynamical simulations of galaxies and the generation of mock images of dust continuum and spectral lines (e.g. H-alpha, CO, C[II]), in the view of ALMA, JWST and SKA.
Research interests:
- Radiative transfer simulations and mock images generation
- The impact of cold gas on galaxy evolution
- Large scale structure of the Universe and the cosmic web
- Analysis of cosmological hydrodynamic simulations
- 21cm line observations of galaxies and spectral stacking
- The neutral hydrogen as a cosmological probe
