Luca Barioglio
Permanent Research Scientist at INFN
Turin, Piedmont, Italy
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolLuca Barioglio is a permanent research scientist at INFN with a decade of experience in high-energy nuclear physics, specializing in data analysis for the ALICE experiment at CERN. He combines strong C++ and Python skills with hands-on contributions to major open-source ALICE projects (AliceO2, O2Physics, AliPhysics), focusing on detector reconstruction, cluster topology algorithms and performant look-up tables for the ITS upgrade. Luca has a track record of peer‑reviewed publications, conference presentations, and coordination roles in quality assurance and physics working groups, alongside supervising students. His PhD and successive research stays at CERN underpin a practical expertise in both detector software development and analysis workflows for light (anti)nuclei. Notably, his master’s work produced a rapid topology-association algorithm and database that influenced later reconstruction tools used in the experiment. Based in Turin, he blends rigorous academic training (cum laude across degrees) with sustained open-source engineering on one of the LHC’s flagship collaborations.
