| 545 | |a Elia Battistelli is an experimental astrophysicist and cosmologist working on several aspects of astrophysics, including the study of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation. Battistelli is currently Associate Professor in the Physics Department of the Sapienza University of Rome, where he teaches the Astrophysics Laboratory course for third-year bachelor physics students and the General Physics course for biotechnology students in the Medicine faculty. In Battistelli's research, he develops radio-frequency, microwave, and millimeter/submillimeter instrumentation for millimeter astronomy and CMB observations and data analysis. | ||
